    I got my belly button pieced a long while ago and when I changed over the belly bar the same thing happened, your body may be rejecting it just like my body did, It might be best if you take it out and let it settle down have you used salt water? That can sometimes help. I now have a scar there wheres it been.
    If it doesn't settle down when you take it out after a couple of days go see your doctor.
