I have had my belly button pierced for 2 years and all of a sudden it's getting itchy and uncomfortable and I think it may have something to do with the jewelry. I honestly don't know what it is, can't be great though cuz it was less than $20. It's beginning to get a little dark (the piercing). If I change the jewelry will that help the darkness go away?
Best Answer which is chosen by voters:
You need to remove your current piercing and retire it:) Let your belly button heal and clean it. Upgrade to a surgical steel belly button ring or 14k gold (Not Plated). ----- I do agree with her!
Other Answers:
Answer 1:
Take the jewelry out and wash the belly button very good with alcohol and q-tips. Use Surgical steel, or Gold for your piercing. Any silver, copper, or the other metals will turn a little and possibly irritate the piercing. ---- In my opinion, this anwer is also very good.
Answer 2:
Try andonized titanium. They are the least allergenic metal. I've had a titanium barbell in my rook for 4 or 5 years now without a problem but the steel ones start to break down much faster. (I'm allergic to nickel in the steel) --- In fact, titanium is a little expensive.
Answer 3:
yeah, it sounds like the jewelry you got wasn't very high grade, you need to be buying jewelry thats made from surgical steel.
