Has anyone had drainage from their navel?

I think I have a new one for you. I'm almost 5 weeks post-op and this is what is going on.I had an open RNY and my incision goes all the way to the edge of my navel. My drain tube was at the very end of the incision, but that closed up and healed up weeks ago. All of my incision is closed and there is no drainage at all. Now for the last few days there has been some drainage out of my navel..yes from inside it. It is clear, kinda tacky. There is no pain, no fever, and NO odor at all. When it dries it becomes crusty with a very very slight tinge of yellow. This is coming from deep inside my navel.I plan to call my Dr. tomorrow but wanted to ask if anyone has had this or has any idea what is going on. This is weird.
