How can i make sure that my belly piercing is healthy?

Question

Its been about a week and a half. And its a bit red on the upper park. I clean it as you should 2-3 times a day blah blah blah...what should i be looking for?

Answer 1

You can usually go back to your piercer and ask them to take a quick look at it and they will happily do so between customers. They can give you the advice you need about what to do next or if it is ok or not.  They often like to see their work anyway and sometimes take pictures of it to post. Pop in for a visit...

... or just see your doctor.

Answer 2

As long as it's not oozing discolored puss, then it's fine.  The redness should go away in another week or so.  Clear or slightly yellowish liquid that forms crusties is normal.
