Straight away as far as i know. I went swimming about 3-4 months after getting mine pierced but my friend went about 1 month after. I dont think it matters as long as you look after your piercing and clean it regularly!

Yes. You could get a scratch in your belly button. Your belly button could get infected. Your belly button could bleed. If your belly button get infected you have to clean it with hydrogen peroxide rubbing alcohol iodine or antiseptic cream. If it doesn't heal after a week you have to see a doctor at the clinic or hospital.


Can you change your belly ring if you just got the piercing one week before?

No you cannot, at least not just yet. Changing your belly button ring, or for that matter any other kind of body jewelry, just one week after getting a new piercing is a surefire recipe for disaster. In such short a time, there is no way that your piercing would have healed enough to enable you to change your belly ring. And if you do try it, you could very well cause your piercing to close, as at such an initial stage, a piercing can close even if left without jewelry for a few minutes. Although belly button piercings take differing lengths of time for healing in different people, it is safe for all to assume that for at least the first six months, your piercing will not have healed properly. Some people may even take up to a couple of years to have their belly piercing heal fully. But that in no way means that you have to wait for a full 2 years to change your nipple ring. Once the initial healing period has passed (about 6 months) you can proceed to change your belly ring. However, as the piercing in all likelihood will not have healed fully, it is best not to keep it free of belly rings for any length of time.
