It's mostly because your clothes rub agenst it and irritate it. Don't wear tight fitting clothing through the healing period.

Another cause is that after you take a shower or clean it, water sometimes hides inside of your belly button and bacteria can start to breed there it being a moist, warm area. Dry your belly button well after it gets exposed to water.
