Navel piercing problems...please help

Faith
okay so i got my bellybutton pierced last June and it would occasionally get "infected" but it's just sometimes it's painful and sensitive and others it's fine but currently the space of skin between the two balls on the bar is very small... it seems like it's been torn and the skin space is getting smaller and i'm paranoid that my skin is gonna just rip right there. the skin is kind of pink and leathery, it's not really hurting and it just looks like it's trying to heal maybe but should i be concerned? what can i do to make it heal faster since i've torn it more than a few times?
