Hi, well I got my belly pierced 5 days ago and I don't know if its infected.. its really red around the top and bottom... it hurts a little bit.. I don't know if its just irritated... to clean it I use bactrine and a sterile saline solution... help me please! I can't tell if I should clean it more

Mine also got infected when I first got it done. Nothing helped the infection except making a paste from a crushed aspirin & peroxide & applying it 2-3 times/day. I went for a couple months trying other things (even the spray the piercing place gave me) & this mixture took care of it in about 1 week... good luck!

Mine was really quite redish for the first week or so but it healed up pretty fast.
