How to clean the belly button?

After a day's work, we have to wash our bodies every day in order to keep them clean, which can effectively improve the quality of sleep. So when we take a shower, do you make sure that every part is cleaned properly? In fact, there is a part that is most easily forgotten, that is the belly button. Many people think that there is no need to wash it, even if they find it very dirty, because many people think that those dirt things are to protect the stomach from cold. In fact, this idea is correct from a certain perspective, but appropriate washing will make people more confident. However, we should also pay attention to many things when cleaning, such as: don’t use your hands to pick inside, etc. Here I will share with you how to clean the belly button.

1. Put the towel in warm water

First soak a towel in warm water and then wring it dry. Gently scrub your belly, especially the belly button, without applying excessive force.

2. Soak the cotton swab

Soak a cotton swab in water and use it to wipe the belly button. Then use a new cotton swab to rub it with soap and clean the belly button. Remember not to insert the cotton swab too deep into the belly button. After wiping, soak a clean cotton swab and wipe it. Repeat this several times and the belly button will be clean.

3. Use water to counter alcohol

After wiping, use a cotton swab dipped in alcohol and water to disinfect the belly button, then wipe the abdomen with a towel, and finally wipe the belly button with a dry cotton swab to complete the cleaning of the belly button.

Precautions

1. When taking a shower, just rinse with clean water. Gently flip up the flesh around your belly button, then take the shower head and gently spray water inside to flush out the dirt inside. There is no need to pick it out with your hands.

2. If you feel that it is still not clean enough, then before taking a bath, prepare some cotton swabs, wet them with water and apply shower gel or soap, then gently poke them into the belly button, then rotate it in a circle to bring out the dirt.

3. If you feel that it is not lubricated enough, it is recommended that you dip a cotton swab in some cooking oil, then poke it in and rub it gently, turning it in a circle to remove the dirt.

4. Washing the belly button is a very distressing process because it is so uncomfortable. So, try to be gentle. If you feel uncomfortable, don’t wash it anymore and wash it again after a while. When washing your belly button, remember to use warm water and avoid using cold water. And after washing, be sure to keep the inside dry, because the belly button doesn't like stickiness.
