i just got this done does it look infected ??

Question

Answer

If you just got it done, it’s going to be red and tender for awhile. Mine too forever to heal. Keep cleaning it. 
Or call a piercer and find out the best protocol.

Answer

Please don’t use aquaphor or neosporin, or anything like that. They’re thick & slimy and can clog your piercing, not allowing it to breathe. It might have worked for a lucky few but it’s not recommended by professionals. Not all piercers are equal imo. Less is more! Wash 1x a day. Once. That’s all. Don’t touch it, don’t pick at it, and do not move the jewelry around while cleaning. If it moves by itself that’s okay, but do not force it as you will irritate it. The only exception to the 1x a day cleaning rule is if you enter a body of water or have done an activity that might dirty the piercing. In that case, wash 1x more after that activity. Avoid sleeping on it for a little and wear loose clothing. My piercer recommends Dr Bronner’s tea tree & castile soap. 2 drops in your palm, a few drops of water, make a nice lather. Put it on your piercing, let it sit for a little, then rinse of well. Pat dry with a paper towel(regular towels carry lots of bacteria).

Answer

No. Just don’t touch it unless you’re cleaning it and religiously stay on top of sea salt soaks. Everyone I know who got a belly ring got infected except mine and I believe it’s cause I was very strict about keeping it clean.

Answer

No. Make sure you're doing the warm salt water soaks.

Answer

No

Answer

That bar is really short. I suggest getting a longer bar whenever I got mine done at sixteen (24 now and still have it) I got a bar that was a little bit longer and I never had this problem I also cleaned it three times a day with dial soap the foam up one none scented.

Answer

No. You just got it done so it’s going to look like that.

Answer

Salt warm water it will be fine do it every day until it heals

Answer

Not infected, just raw. Make sure you clean it a ton, like at least 4c a day. Use aquaphor where the skin was pierced, this will help it heal. You only need to worry if you see puss or anything oozy.

Looks so
