What do you do if your belly button piercing is infected?
Didn't they tell you at the place where you got your piercing ? SEE A DOCTOR. Generally seeing a doctor should not be the first step when dealing with an infected piercing. If your piercing is hot to the touch, swollen, oozing, seeping, or otherwise distasteful it may be infected. Leave the jewellery in as it allows fluid to drain and prevents the formation of an abscess. Clean your piercing twice daily (not including showering) with your chosen method of piercing care - an excellent method is to use a sea salt soak - add half a teaspoon of sea salt to a cup of boiling water and allow it to cool to warm, apply this to your piercing for a few minutes twice a day. Apart from that try to touch it as little as possible and always wash your hands before touching it. If this does nothing to help after a few days or your piercing starts to look in any way truly alarming then yes, please see a doctor.

Why are the phrases belly piercing and belly button piercing annoying to professional piercers?
Well the proper name is "Navel Piercing" because the area we pierce is the top of the navel (this is the area above the umbilical knot or in lay terms "belly button"). We don't pierce, "belly buttons", we pierce navels. The phrase "belly" draws connotations of a less than clean and shapely individual, as an example "beer belly" (not per say a svelte image when mentally visualized). The phrase Navel is anatomically correct to indicate a location on the human anatomy. So when the phrase "belly piercing" or "belly button" piercing is used it also indicates a a lack of knowledge about body piercing and what is involved in providing the service. This can be a concern, people think something is simple and then they try to "do it your self" and end up gravely ill or seriously hurt jumping into something without doing the research. It's also a matter of respect for the craft, if you want something done learn about it for your own safety and address it as it should be addressed, using the correct terminology and names. Professional body piercers go through a lot of studying, learning, researching and practicing to become good enough to earn the respect of our peers and the trust of our clients. All we ask is that you take the time to learn a bit about what you want and treat it with the respect it deserves and the name it is known as.
