Using hand sanitizer on a belly piercing is not recommended, as it can irritate the skin and potentially delay healing. Hand sanitizers often contain alcohol, which can be too harsh for an open wound and may cause dryness or discomfort. Instead, it's better to clean the piercing with a saline solution or a mild antiseptic specifically designed for piercings. Always follow aftercare guidelines provided by your piercer to ensure proper healing.

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.
