I have had my belly button pierced for almost two years now with no problems, but I have seen several of my friends belly button piercing's become infected and grow sores or bumps around or near the infected area. First, let me warn you- DO NOT POP THIS SORE OR BUBBLE! It will bleed and only cause it to grow larger. Second, the best thing you can do is go back to the piercer. Have them check it out and give you their advice. Perhaps you are not cleaning it often enough, or not cleaning it with the right tools. So to answer your question specifically, sores and bumps could clear up anywhere from two weeks to over a year, depending on how you handle the situation. Please be wise about this and seek out professional help!
A belly button piercing,or naval piercing,is basically a piercing on the belly button. It can take about 4 to 6 months to heal after getting pierced. The legal age to get one depends on what state you live in. Most naval piercings are done in tattoo parlors or places that specialize in body piercings.
Ive had my ear lobe pierced for about 12 weeks, and it just started not getting swollen and sore about 4 weeks ago. So id say about 4-7 weeks
It depends on what kind of lip piercing you're talking about. For a labret piercing, it'd seriously affect the reed and make it impossible to play. Plus it'd hurt like hell. For a piercing on the side (snake bites, spider bites, a ring on the side) it would probably affect your embouchure, but it would likely still be possible to play.
Pain, swelling, bad odour, discharge of blood and puss from the piercing, sore throat, fever, chills. This means you are in serious shape and medical attention is required without delay. Infected tongue piercing can go septic and require medical attention and antibiotics to treat.
I got an industrial about 3 months ago. It was sore afterwards, I didn't want to touch it... but it wasn't THAT painful. It took about 3 weeks to heal, so i suggest that if it is still hurting and very painful still, go back to your piercer and ask them whats up. You can always call them before that to ask any questions, piercers are there to help. An Industrial is going to hurt quite a bit after its pierced, it will throb and ache for quite some time, but if its reducing you to tears that can indicate that perhaps it was incorrectly placed or infection. Either ring up your Piercer, or get a doctor to have a look at it.
give it about a week or so it will be okay
only if you want it to be sore and itcy

Give it a week, then when you try listen to your body, if the piercing is tugging or sore ease off on that specific activity. Basically play it by ear.
It varies person to person. On average, it takes 3-6months for the piercings to heal completely. Everyone is different.
Yes. Its fine for it to be a bit sore
yes it is completely normal
The only thing that really works is LEAVE IT ALONE and wait.
It is different for everyone, for me it was really sore for the first day, then for about a week after it was painful to bend down. After that it was fine unless I knocked it.
It can feel sore as soon as you get up from the piercing table. Sitting down can be a pain, but leaning back can help that. Hope you find this usefull.
One of two reasons. One, either the jewelry that you are trying to put in is a bigger gauge than the jewelry that it was originally done in, or the hole is closed either slightly to all the way, and you will not be able to get it back in without either shoehorning it in with a taper or waiting for it to heal, and then get it repierced.
If it's sore and red, you can take ibuprofen to reduce the swelling. But you should always use sea salt soaks (8oz of warm water and about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of salt) and soak your piercing to reduce the chances of infection.
