HELP PLEASE!
ADVICE PLEASE.
Hey, all! I got my belly pierced in March of 2016. I went through the process of having my first barbell be too short and begin invading and getting an abscess, as well as being allergic to the metal. I finally (nearly a year later) found a metal that works for my body, and I have had no pain or itching since. So now for my question... through this crazy healing process, I can tell my piercing is holding onto less skin than when originally pierced - at least I'm guessing so, though the swelling seemed to never really go away before. I also have a scar from the lancing of the abscess above the piercing. My concern is that my body is rejecting the rest of the piercing. I have no more irritation or sensitivity, and my scar does not descend to where the piercing is inside my belly, just above it. Outside of holding on to less skin, there are no signs of rejection. I'm just incredibly paranoid, and because of my scarring, I do NOT want to take my piercing out. I took the piercing out to take a closer look, and I have no pain. The skin involved also seems like it should be think enough... I think? I'm hoping?

Below are some pictures of my piercing. Any answers are so appreciated.
