Rejecting septum piercing?
I don't even think septum piercings reject because they're not surface piercings. It sounds like something may have gone wrong when you got it pierced because it shouldn't be that painful a week later. It sounds like you're taking care of it correctly by doing the sea salt soaks and everything. Just make sure to wash your hands before you touch it and try not to play with it too much. Keep an eye on it for the next few days and make sure that's not bleeding or pussing. Everyone heals differently so maybe yours is just giving you a harder time than mine gave me.

Is there any way to stop a belly button piercing from rejecting?
If it's rejecting, there is really nothing you can do to stop it. You can try switching to another material (usually titanium or gold) because it CAN be caused by allergies, but not always. Just because your seeing less skin inbetween doesn't mean it's growing out. When you first get it done, it's very traumatic to the area, and it swells. This swelling takes up the whole length of the bar. As it heals and calms down (after a few weeks.. like.. right about now), the swelling will decrease and you'll see a bit of the bar. If it's not red and oozing (other than lymph) and not painful, you really have nothing to worry about. If it's rejecting, the holes will be constantly irritated. But yeah, just because you see a little more skin doesn't mean anything other than the swelling has gone down because your body is getting used to it.. and it's healing more. Unelss it grows out ALOT, you have nothing to worry about, though most DO grow out a little over time. Bioplast is usually not a good idea unless it's a lip ring or somewhere you have to worry about your teeth or something. The BEST material is pure gold, followed by titanium if you don't have the cash. I worked out a lot too when I got mine and played tons of sports and I had no issues with it (other than it took forever to heal) but it didn't grow out. You can likely just leave your original one in if it's healing well. Only switch if it gets and stays irritated (remember it might get irritated if you hit it on something for a few days). Also, make sure to clean it when your done working out because the sweat sitting in your navel is not exactly healthy for it. Leave in the original as long as you can before you try to change it or take it out, even to clean it. They DO take up to a year, sometimes even more to heal, and because the ends are threaded, when you take it out it will rip the thin, weak skin on the inside of your navel and reverse healing. Good luck, it sounds fine for now.
My navel piercing got infected. Can I heal it with salt water?
Depends on how infected it is. Using a warm saline mixture a few times daily as a soak (cotton ball soaked in sea salt and warm water) is a good way to help heal it. If it is red, painful, oozing, or anything else, be smart. See a doctor to be sure. Only you can tell the level it's at if you can heal this at home or see the doctor instead. Good luck.
My navel piercing rejected.. I want to get it repierced?
So about two weeks ago my belly button piercing was getting reddish and had two red bumps. I did sea salt soaks about three times a day and it sort of helped. Then a few days ago the bumps kinda went away but it started scabbing and getting redder and I noticed the skin between the two holes was thinning. I took out the piercing today. So my question is how long can I wait to get it repierced ? And is there anyway to prevent rejection? Anyone go through this before?
