I've had an eyebrow piercing and a bellybutton piercing for a year. They still havent healed. or they sometimes heal for a few weeks then turn red again, etc... should I remove them or just wait longer?

I'd remove them and try again later after they have healed

It takes awhile for piercings to heal and during that process they can feel great one day and hurt like heck the next day. When I got my nose pierced (and my cartilage) my piercer gave me a pimpled with some information about healing time if you got a phamplet or something read it and it will tell you how long your piercings should heal for. If you are still concerned go back to the place that pierced you and have them look at it, they are always willing to help!

yes, you need to remove them, let it all heal. You may be allergic or something - check w/a doctor. You might have to pierce somewhere else, if you still want to. I think you might like not having them.

could be your chemical makeup sometimes reacts with the metal...gold, silver or whatever...have you tried changing the post or ring? Maybe you can call the place that did the piercing and get their input too..

hmm...i have piercings and they dont do that. i think you should go to the person who pierced them and tell them about it and ask what you should do, they should know.
or actually you may be allergic to the jewelry you use so you could try organic jewelry it shouldnt irritate at all

I would remove them, or keep them in and rub alcohol on them every night.

If you do remove them, don't go swimming for a while. Don't want you to get a leak and drown.

That sounds painful.... needing antibiotics a lot?
I'd take them out if they were that much trouble....

If you want to keep them, keep them. Otherwise, get rid of them. It should be YOUR decision.
