    How do I know if my belly piercing is infected?
    I've had my belly piercing for a week now and up till yesterday it was absolutely fine. After I woke up in the morning, it looked a little red, there was some puss and there was a thin crusty layer under the top of the barbell where it comes in contact with the skin. I've been reading up on navel piercing infection and they all say that it hurts lots but mine doesn't actually hurt at all..
    So does this mean that's its infected?
