Yes it isn't uncommon. The piercing may not have jewellery in it however dirt, bacteria and other nasty things can still enter the old piercing site and cause it to abscess Navel piercing sites need to be cleaned regardless of there being jewellery in the piercing or not.

It all depends on how long you have had your piercing. If it has been more than 1 month, it might be infected. But if it is relatively new, that is perfectly normal. In both cases, just keep cleaning it with a sea salt and water solution and it should be OK. If is persists, go to your piercer, and they should be able to tell you and give you further instructions. Happy Piercing!
