Hey, this is my story.. please take your time reading it and help me out?

Well, when I just turned 15 I got my navel pierced for the very first time, I totally adored it but was so desperate to change it, I waited for 3/4 months then changed it into a dangley one. That made my navel pop.
A year and a half later, I got my navel pierced again, but this time it was at a different studio, the woman said the previous piercer had pierced my navel wrong which caused it to pop.. anyway 5 months later is now.
I took my navel bar out for just 24 hours and now I keep trying to re-pierce but it keeps bleeding and it feels like inside it's already closed. I've spent £50 on it already, I really do not wish for this hole to close again!

Can anyone help me please :( ??!

Have a friend help. Take some aspirin a while before starting. Blood is cleansing, not to mention slippery. You have 12 quarts of it in your body. Put it back in! If you re unsuccessful, you'll have to pay to have it re-done.

If you are trying to force the piercing through make sure you wash your hands and keep the area VERY clean... you are running a high risk of infection.

I would suggest going back to wear you got it pierced and see if they can put it back in for you... they most likely won't charge you for it.

If you can't push it through with only a minimal amount of force, then leave it alone. Scar tissue can be very difficult and tricky to pierce through, and if you are not a professional I do not recommend you do it. Depending on how closed up it is, a barbell will not pierce through it anyway.

I know you have spent a lot of money on it already, but if you want it re-pierced I highly suggest you go to a professional yet again. You may actually need a needle to go through it again. Good luck and I hope it turns out okay for you. :)
