Can you use peroxide to clean your naval piercing?
If you want to needlessly irritate it and dry it out, sure. But in all seriousness, no, don't use this on the site. The best thing to use on virtually all fresh piercings that you can make at home for little money, use sea salt soaks. For this, you will mix a ¼ Teaspoon of non-iodized Sea Salt with 8oz. of, as warm to hot as you can stand it within reason, distilled water. The optimal time to do this is right after a hot shower at twice a day for the initial healing time of the piercing. You don't want to over clean the site, and you don't want to under clean it either. You will mix this solution in a one time use disposable cup and will then "cup" the cup over the piercing site and hold it firm to the skin, making a seal, and let it just soak the site for about 15 minutes. The warm to hot water mixed with the sea salt makes a great astringent which is vastly better for you than trying to use such things as peroxide and the like. After the 15 minute soak, take a clean Q-tip and gently wipe away the softened lymphatic fluid that will most likely be accumulated at the fistula and harden on the rod. Don't use the same side of the swab for both sides of the entrance points, and when done, rinse the area with warm water and pat dry the site.
Where can you get your belly button pierced at 15 in Mississippi?
In the state of Mississippi, it is unlawful to tattoo or pierce any minor under the age of 16, and even with proper parental consent at that age, it is at the discretion of the shop who they will and will not perform work upon based on age or even your own personal attitiude if they like.
Is it normal for your tongue piercing to stretch after 2days?
Do you mean that the piercing hole itself has stretched? Its possible that you pulled the bar or played with it too much and it caused a tear but that seems unlikely for only having it for two days. Maybe it just seems like its stretched because the swelling has gone down a bit. Since i cant see it for myself and dont really understand what you mean by stretching, I suggest that you go and sow your piercer and have them help you out :)
Will your belly button reject the piercing if you repierce scar tissue?
It might, but not only because of the scar tissue. Many people just cant heal or keep navel piercings. They are surface piercings so they can be difficult to heal. If its only rejected once, go ahead and give it a try. If its rejected multiple times, you might not be able to keep one so it would be a waste of money :)
Is it normal for yellow stuff to come out of a lip piercing?
If its a really light whitish/yellow, its normal. If its darker or has a green tint to it, its possibly infected. Other signs of infection are discoloration around the piercing, swelling, tenderness, and itchiness. If its a new piercing, these symptoms are normal. They become problematic when they last longer than 2 weeks. If you're playing with it or aggravating it while you eat, it might take longer to heal and be angrier longer. If you think its infected, go see your piercer to have them confirm or deny your suspicion. Then, if it is infected, go see a doctor. Hope this helps! :)
Go see an actual piercer to have them check it out. Guns use a lot of pressure and can cause a lot of bruising and unnecessary trauma so it'll hurt longer than if you had gotten it done with a needle. Using a gun on cartilage is a terrible idea because you could have shattered the cartilage and disfigured your ear. Chances are that the stud is too short to allow for swelling so go to a piercer and have them give you proper jewelry and check the area for infection. Definitely dont use a gun for any other piercings ever again.

Would a crooked tongue web piercing straighten out after it heals?
If its swollen, it can look crooked. So yes, that should straighten out once the swellings gone. If it looks crooked immediately after piercing it, its most likely going to stay like that. If it really bothers you, talk to the piercer about getting it repierced.
Can you paralyze your lip by piercing it?
Sometimes. If you do it by yourself, it can happen. If you pierce it in the wrong spot, you can hit a nerve, resulting in paralyzation. I highly recommend getting it pierced by a purofessional.
You can do damage to nerve bundles if you attempt to do your own piercing. Leave it to a professional body piercer.
How do you know when your belly button piercing is healed enough to change the ring?
Wait at least 2-3 months. If its ready, there wont be any swelling or tenderness. It may be red if you hit it or something like that. I dont change out any of my piercings until I can poke it and lightly tug on the jewelry without it hurting. If you aren't sure, you can always just have your piercer look at it :)
What is the superstitious reason of an itchy belly button?
Today i experienced a sense of an itchy belly button at work out of nowhere i was thinking to myself "why is it so itchy out of nowhere?" before that happened something had reminded me that i didnt have my name tag and i looked down and out of nowhere this scene played in my head what the effect of this cause was going to be like.. a couple hours later after the itchyness went away my boss asked me if i was going home. My reply was a no. He then told me to tuck in my shirt and asked me where my name tag was at and i told him it was at home. He then told me to leave. It was like i attracted that to happen in a way. Kind of like the law of attraction..

How much does it cost to get your back dimples pierced?
It depends on the shop and what kind of jewelry you get. You definitely want microdermals for this, so don't get bars just because they're cheaper. Call around to the different shops and ask for pricing.
Are belly button ring sizes different?
Most are done at 14ga but they can also be done at 16ga. Really, you can get it pierced up to 10ga. Length is also different for everyone. Its a good idea to have a piercer fit you with a bar. Improper length can increase friction and lead to rejection. Bars that are too short can become problematic with swelling.
