What you are describing may be an umbilical granuloma which is a benign condition. You need not to be worried about it. It could be dried blood also, which needs to be evaluated. It's better if you upload a picture.

If the navel is dry n no red fluid is oozing out nothing to worry. Keep it dry, slowly it will dry completely. However if there's redness around the navel or fluid is oozing regularly please contact Pediatrician.
