Can you use Benzalkonium Chloride to clean your belly button piercing?
No. BZK as it is known in the first aid world is not intended to be used on puncture wounds, that's what a piercing is a puncture wound. Yes I know it's in the ear piercing solution they gave you to clean your piercing with. Well your navel is not an ear lobe, it's a navel and the BZK can trigger a hypertrophic reaction if misused (and it is often misused). I have a attached a link in the "Related Links" to aftercare for navel piercings. Follow the instructions and all should be good. Some newbie piercing studios are selling stuff that is not good for piercings, they don't know nor do they care, a sale is a sale. I wouldn't go back there again. Find a real professional body piercer next time. Good luck.
