be careful with the belly button ring. my first pregnancy I took mine out. this pregnancy I thought it was fully closed. after almost 3 years of nothing in It I thought that was a good assumption. but I was wrong and it started to get really infected and was like super red and hot and swollen. well I went in to the doctors and there was this tiny worm inside of me! we have no clue how it happened or how long it was jn there for but because my stomach was getting bigger and bigger and stretching it gave the worm no room and made it infected. so just be careful

@camdensmama, ya iv had mine done since i was 15 and i will be 21 in october so there no way its infected just the top hurts and thats where it mostly red. the rest kinda looks red from me moving skin to look at inside and its fine thats why im thinking its just from skin stretching

I took mine out a few weeks ago mine is red like that but doesn't hurt at all and there is no way it's infected. I've had mine done for over 6 almost 7 years!

take it out and spray saline on it ...if you had your piercing long it will not close because its all dead tissue now.

Honestly I've had my belly button pierced for 6 years, I took it out once I found out I was pregnant. Mine closed up within a couple days

If it doesn't seem to be any sort of infection I would assume it's from your belly stretching, which I don't think there is much you can do about that other than taking the ring out :/

Try cleaning it with warm seasalt water. Personally I took mine out because I didn't want it to stretch and get irritated. Hopefully yours gets better!
