The umbilicus is also called the navel, bellybutton, or umbo.<\/p>\n<p>The umbilicus is composed of fibrous tissue and a small amount of adipose tissue. It is innervated by the T10-L1 spinal nerves. The nerve supply to the umbilicus is responsible for the sensation of pain and pressure in the umbilical region.<\/p>\n<p>The umbilicus is a common site for umbilical hernias. These occur when the abdominal wall surrounding the umbilicus weakens and allows the intestine to protrude through the opening.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Navel_Types\"><\/span>Navel Types<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are three types of navels: the normal navel, the innie, and the outie.<\/p>\n<p>The normal navel is the most common type. It is the belly button that is located in the middle of the stomach.<\/p>\n<p>The innie is the opposite of the normal navel. It is a belly button that is located on the inside of the stomach.<\/p>\n<p>The outie is the most rare type of navel. It is a belly button that is located on the outside of the stomach.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clinical_Significance_of_Navel\"><\/span>Clinical Significance of Navel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The navel is a physical feature that is present on most humans at birth. It is located in the center of the abdomen and is created when the umbilical cord is cut after birth. The navel is a point of physical vulnerability because it is the site where the umbilical cord was attached to the baby&#8217;s body.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cultural_Significance_of_Navel\"><\/span>Cultural Significance of Navel<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The navel has a lot of cultural significance for a variety of reasons. It is often seen as a symbol of femininity and is sometimes considered to be the most erotic part of the body. Additionally, the navel is often seen as a symbol of motherhood, as it is the place where a baby is attached to the mother&#8217;s body in the womb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is a Navel?; Clinical and Cultural Significance of Navel; A navel is a scar on the abdomen where the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_focuskw":"Navel - Anatomy, Types, Clinical and Cultural Significance","_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Learn about navel topic of Biology in details explained by subject experts on infinitylearn.com.
