:eek: ummm, well I got mi navel pierced and it sort of has this small bump, it is soft and its kind of under mi belly ring, but when I move the ring to the side I can see it, do any of you no what it is?? is it suppose 2 look like this?? and its lighter than tha rest of the hole when it gt pierced at, but the bottom of the piercing looks fine! Watz up wif that?? :confused: :confused: :confused:

It sounds like what I call an "irritation bump".

Is it swollen? Red? Have you been playing with it a lot? Put in any new jewelry lately? Got it caught on anything?

**EDIT** - And how old is the piercing?

I don't think its swollen and its not red [[im brown skin]],I don't play with it a lot, but mi shirts do kind of rub on it a bit.
And tha piercing was done in June

Oh mayb I do cause I kind of touch it w/out washing mi hands to pluck the crusties off :(

It could be irritated due to your shirts rubbing on it.

Does it have any discharge at all? And how often are you cleaning it, and what do you clean it with?

oh mayb i do cause i kinda touch it w/out washin mi hands to pluck the crusties off :(

That could most certainly do it.

Anytime you touch your piercing you must wash your hands first with antibacterial soap to prevent bacteria from getting into the piercing.

Also, when you take the crusties off, you should be doing it with a Q-tip rather than with your hands.

Yea it has discharge, and I clean it every time I see the crusties so like 3 times a day, I use this mixture of sea salt and water my piercer gave me

The piercing is 3 months old, you should reduce cleaning to once a day. When you shower is the easiest time to do it.

Also, I do not personally recommend using sea salt, but if you do use it, don't use it 3 times a day. That is more harmful than helpful, and it should also not be your primary means of cleaning it. Clean it with antibacterial soap.

What kind of discharge is coming out of it?

When you clean it, make sure you remove the crusties gently with a Q-tip. Don't pick at it with your fingers/nails. That is very bad.

Oops -- posted the previous post twice by accident.

What do u mean what kind of discharge?the color?

Yes, color? Does it smell bad?
