What is some basic information about belly button piercing?
A belly button piercing can be a lot of fun, but it must be kept absolutely clean. It is a piercing that is easily infected, and when it does get infected, it's pretty bad. After getting pierced, clean the area twice a day (as well as after the shower, after swimming in the beach, etc). Also know that after the belly button ring is removed, there will be a small scar that can stretch (permanently) during pregnancy.

Can you take out a lip piercing after 1 week to clean it?
Why? You never remove the jewellery in a fresh piercing to clean it, you clean the piercing and jewellery in place while in the shower, that should be more than enough. You can do damage to the new tissue trying to form by removing the jewellery, your written aftercare instructions should out line how to care for your new piercing.
Is it okay if you have a belly ring and you berly got it like 4 or 5 days ago and you can't screaw it out to clean it?
You DO NOT remove a navel piercing to clean it....The navel takes the longest of all the piercings to heal.....Over a year, but you should wait at least 3 months to change it..or take it out for any reason....If your piercer didn't take the time to tell you how to clean and care for it....get another piercer....Hope this helps.........
What do athletes need to do after they get there belly button pierced?
I would suggest you get a PTFE barbell for your navel piercing and wear that for as long as your sports schedule lasts. PTFE is a biocompatible surgical Teflon that will flex with movement and prevent any damage from occurring during contact play, that in concert with taped gauze over the piercing and you should be good to go. Standard jewellery (barbells and rings) don't like impacts and is very rough on the new piercing when it's trying to heal. Getting the piercing sooner than the season start would have been the better bet but for now consider the PTFE as your best option. See your professional body piercer for more assistance.

Can you put peroxide on a belly button piercing?
No, when I got my belly button pierced my piercer told me specifically not to use peroxide or alcohol on the piercing. If peroxide or alcohol gets on it, it'll be fine but it dries out your skin which isn't good for healing or cleaning. Use soapy warm water and a sea salt water mixture to throughly clean your piercing, that's what I used, as I was following my piercer's instructions. I've had my piercing for almost 7 months and I've never had a problem with it.
