Can a belly button piercing close up?
It depends on 2 things. 1 - your body’s personal healing ability (some take longer than others) and 2 - how long you have had it pierced. If you had it done in the last 6 months or so, it will probably close up in a matter of days (or in some cases, hours). If you have had it for longer than that, it will obviously take longer to close up, if it ever does. Once piercings have completely healed and you take the earring, barbell etc out, there will always be some kind of mark, whether it be an actual hole or scar tissue. I had my ears pierced for 5 years, I took them out and when I put them back in 20 years later, they went in with very little difficulty. I can't say the same for belly button piercings, though, as I only had mine done 2 months ago. Hope this helps.
Can I take my belly button piercing out to shower?
I've had my belly button piercing for almost five and a half months now and it's been great. I've taken it out several times to change it but I was very careful about sanitizing it and nothing happened after. But lately a clear liquid had been coming out of it. It has no odor and I have absolutely no pain. I know they say to do salt water soaks and all of that, which I have been doing. But I was just wondering if it would be bad to take it out while I shower, clean out the hole and put the ring back in immediately. It just seems like the best way to get rid of the clear liquid. Would that be bad?
If your belly button piercing is infected should you take it out?
unfortunately everything the doctors says is not true. DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT TAKE THE PIERCING OUT!!! its okay to leave it in, yu really dnt have a choice unless yu want bigger problems. if yu take the piercing out, the hole will close up && trap the infection inside. && that can cause wayyy worse problems than yu already have now. I know it hurts && its itchy && very irritating, but watever yu do, do take it out. my belly piercing was once infected, but I continued to clean it && the infection cleared up && now its fine. its ok to stay on the medicine for however long your doctor said to && continue to keep it clean. I would recommend cleaning your piercing with warm sea salt water (NOT IODIZED TABLE SALT) if yu aren't already. take a shot glass, put a few rocks of salt in the glass, put warm water in the glass, && then stir until the salt has dissolved. once it has dissolved; bend over, put the shot glass up to your piercing, && then sit back/lie down && let your piercing soak for at least 5-10 mins. wat warm sea salt soaks do is it draws out the infection && bacteria that causes infection. yu wanna do the sea salt soaks 2-3 times a day everyday until your piercing is healed all the way. this is a very good method && it worked amazingly for me && I'm sure it will for yu. dnt touch it or anything, unless you're about to clean it, but make sure your hands are very clean before hand. jus continue to keep cleaning it && dnt do anything to further irritate it. && it'll be jus fine, I promise! good luck && I hope I've helped yu:)
Can I take out my belly button piercing for about an hour after having it for a month?
Can you? Yes. Should you? Probably not. Until scar tissue is fully formed in the pierced hole, while it will be easy to remove, trying to put it back will be painful and difficult as the metal shaft tears the partially healed flesh. Even after the initial wound stops releasing fluids it will still be weeks until sufficient scar tissue forms, about six weeks.If you must remove it lubricate the jewelry with antibiotic cream to help it slide out or in without tearing. While the jewelry is out of the piercing you still must follow the same rules for care as when it was first pierced: do not swim or submerge the piercing, keep the area clean, etc.
Can I take out my belly button piercing out for a couple of hours after getting it done 3 days ago?
Nope.I took my first navel piercing about five months after I got it pierced in order to change it. I put the ring aside to clean it for a minute or so and when I grabbed the new bar to put in, it wouldn’t go through the top hole. The little bugger had already started to heal up. I rammed it through and it bled a truck load and then never healed properly after, so I had to take it out.Wait the proper six months, and if you can’t, don’t get it done. That sounds harsh but navel piercings are an absolute bitch to heal and if you’re gonna do it, you gotta do it properly. In my experience of piercings, of which I’ve had eleven, navel has hands down been the worst one to heal.Good luck with the healing and I hope all goes well.
Will My belly button piercing close after 3 hours?
I got my belly button pierced in August and they said I can take it out in 4 months. My birthday (November 13th) is the exact 4 month date but my problem is that I have cheer try outs on the 10th,11th, and 12th from 5-8. The hole looks almost healed but I'm not sure and I'm afraid it's going to close for those 3 hours that it's out.
Do you take your belly button piercing out when you clean it with sea salt?
I recently pierced my belly button my self (stupid I know) and I accidentally cleaned it with alcohol before I knew you were not supposed to. It made it all red and irritated so I'm thinking it probably caused some kind of infection. I know from previous piercings you can clean it with a mixture of sea salt and water but what I'm curious about is if you need to take it out when you do clean it with the sea salt water. If you have any other suggestions feel free to tell me I really need help. I don't want anything bad to happen.
