I've had my bellybutton piercing for about 3 years, had it done ages ago at a salon, everything has been fine, healed well etc. and had no problems for the past three years.
However a couple of days ago I noticed it was sore when I changed the jewellery, and removed the bar as I thought perhaps it was inflamed. But now a few days later and it's painful to touch and to insert any jewellery into it. There is also a puss like substance (nice!) which comes out when I squeeze the hole... any ideas how to clear this up, and what could have caused it? As I said it's been fine for years, seems odd to have just all of a sudden gone funny! The only thing I can think of is I was at the beach, and perhaps some sand got in? But I've been to the beach countless times before and encountered no probs with it.
At the mo not wearing any jewellery in the piercing and cleaning it a few times daily with antibacterial lotion, but don't want the hole to close up!
Cheers :)
