It may be infected, or if it's a new piercing this may be normal healing, either way the advice is the same: leave the jewellery in as it allows any fluid to drain from the piercing rather than building up and forming an abscess. Rinse your mouth after eating, drinking or smoking; the best thing to use is alcohol-free mouthwash, you can also just use bottled water. Soak your piercing twice a day in a warm salt water solution - half a teaspoon of sea salt added to boiling water and allowed to cool to a warm, rather than hot, temperature - and soak for a few minutes.

What are signs of a newly pierced infected belly botton piercing?

Redness, heat, and fluid discharge are most common. Some coloured discharge (white or pale yellow is lymph discharge and it completely normal) may come out of it. If there is just a slight redness around the holes there is nothing to worry about. The best thing to do is to leave the jewellery in (to allow any fluid to drain and prevent an abscess forming) and to soak the piercing in warm salt water - add half a teaspoon of sea salt to boiling water and allow to cool to warm, rather than hot, soak your piercing twice daily.
