How to care for belly button piercing in the shower?

Question

Yes I'm the same female that posted in the other post. I have another quick   question. My piercer never told me anything about using sea salt with warm water or using antibacterial soap to heal the piercing all he gave me was the cream. My question is im scared to risk it in the shower so I'm gonna have to be careful while using my shampoo and conditioner.  But I need to shower I don't wanna smell lol I don't have antibacterial soap I'm gonna have to buy that tomorrow so for now can I just use water?  I just got mine pierced yesterday.

Answer

You will be fine. Obviously don't rub it with a rag or anything but before you get out, after you finish everything else, wash it with dial soap and pat dry.

Answer

Avoid soap getting onto the piercing, after you shower do a soak of non iodized sea salt and warm water for 5-10 minutes. Doing these soaks twice a day will help to keep it moist, and get rid of any crusty bits. Hope this helps answer your question.

Answer

When I got my nose pierced. I would clean it 3 times a day with warm water and salt. It never got infected and within a week it was healed

Answer

When I had my belly button done I used dial antibacterial, the orange one. Just a little squirt and move the bar up and down so the soap and water rinse any dirt or puss out. Took about a week to heal!!
