Belly button piercing is red normal or not?
I had my belly button pierced on Monday and it was fine, not red not even sore. Then on Wednesday it started hurting and was real sore, then has now got a red rash almost like a burn where the bar is. It's real sore now and I clean it 3 times everday. Am I doing something wrong? Or is there someone I can do to stop the soreness and get rid of the redness? Help please.

I think possibly the bar is made of some base metal and not silver; that is why the burn is appearing. The bar has to be pure silver.
What are you cleaning with? Should only be using salt water solution and a clean cloth, and of course clean hands. |

tickle's right. And what amterial is the bar? You should have something surgical steel or titanium. Don't use any harsh products like hydrogen peroxide or dial. It's generally normal for a small amount of pain during the healing process.

Savlon was what I got told to use by the women who done it. It says it prevents infections.
Thank you both for your help:). |

Well it hasn't been preventing infection

Well what shall I do? I don't want to have it re-pierced because I had a bad experience in having it done.

You don't have to have it pierced again. Discontinue using the salvon and start rinsing the area with warm salt water for a few days and see how it goes. Keep us posted.

Just remember. Everything you use has to be CLEAN, A CLEAN CLOTH EVERY TIME.
