What kind of problems do navel rings cause?
Navel rings don't actually cause any trouble, it's the mis use of the aftercare routeen and user error that causes the problem. Navel piercings need to be clean and they need fresh air in order to heal, more often than not people wear tight clothing and cover the piercing for hours on end thus not allowing the piercing to breath. Then skipping the proper cleaning routeen or over cleaning the piercing can cause trouble again. I have provided hundreds of ladies with navel piercings and out of that group only 6% had issues due to the above listed points. # Buy only the best jewellery form known quality vendors (piercing studios) # Get the piercing professionally done by a shop with an excellent track record # Follow the instructions you have been given and if you have trouble go back to the studio for help. # Give the piercing time to heal 3~6 months of longer. Follow the above listed points and you should have no trouble with your navel piercing.

That is a hypertrophic reaction. This is a reaction to an irritant, generally the over use of cleaning products and failure to rinse the piercing out correctly after cleaning.

Is it bad if a navel piercing bleeds?
Well right after the piercing is done sometimes there can be a little bleeding, rare but it does happen. If you have had the piercing for a few days this is just a reaction to bumping and cleaning and the bleeding should stop fairly quick. Remember it's a new hole so yeah bleeding could occur, once the tissue starts to knit the bleeding will stop and the piercing will heal up. Now be sure you are cleaning it well and properly, don't over clean as this can lead to further issues down the road.
