Answers:
I have m belly button pierced and I had a mild version of this while my friend had yours exactly!.

DO NOT TAKE IT OUT! It will be worse for you!.
Make sure your ring is sterling silver because if its fake this would be bad!. Also, do not clean it with alcohol!. Use salt and water or a solution that they sell at piercing places!.

Why this is happening is because you did not clean it when you are supposed to 3 times a day for the first two weeks and then twice for a week and then once until its completely healed!.
Also, you put an object into your body that it is unaware of so your body is trying to defend itself by trying to engulf it to get rid of it!.

Please be smart about your piercings in the future and I hope I helped you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Okay!.!.!.whatever you do DO NOT use peroxide or rubbing alcohol on it!. The scabbing and puss is normal during the healing process!. You will know when it's actually started healing because it will start itching!.

But yes, the puss and scabbing is caused because your belly button just had a hole punched through it!. But using peroxide or rubbing alcohol on it can cause the hole to dry out, which doesn't help it heal, it just dries out the skin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It's definitely infected if there's puss!. You could try cleaning it with peroxide and antibiotic ointment!. If you think it's best to take it out and let it heal than do so!. You could always get it pierced again later on!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, you can leave it in!. Just start cleaning it three times a day!. Mine took a good two months to heal!! It will be fine, you can tell when it's infected!. Puss and scabbing is normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Keep it clean, there is no need to take it out!. It takes some ppl!. longer for piercing to heal up!. Try soaking it in Sea Salt water for a good 3 mins!. a day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

go see a doctor!!! piercings can be so dangerous! they can actually be fatal and/or very harmful towards your nerves, not kidding! i'm not trying to scare you but its true!. just go see a doctor!Www@Answer-Health@Com

unless it starts to hurt really bad, i would leave itin, but you must start cleaning it at least 3 x dailyWww@Answer-Health@Com
