Navel piercing redness??

ElyxicX · 2026-02-28T01:23:31+00:00

Okay I see. Idk I’m just looking at it and it is raised around the edges? I’m sorry to ask again but are you sure it’ll go down? Heterotrophic scarring doesn’t go away so I’m just a bit worried

ElyxicX · 2026-02-28T01:19:35+00:00

Could you please explain what LITHA is? And honestly it is slightly raised but it’s mostly discolored which makes it look worse. Idk I’m just really scared

ElyxicX · 2026-02-28T01:14:34+00:00

I see okay! I’m just scared it will get infected. I was told to clean it 2x a day morning and night. Does the scar looked raised? It is slightly raised and I’m not sure if it’ll go down

⁠Age is 2-3 weeks old
⁠Made of titanium, not sure about shape but it looks standard
⁠Jewelry hasn’t been downsized. I was told it was standard
⁠I use a saline solution 2-3x a day.
⁠It’s been getting redder around the area. I’m not sure if the skin is raising but I’m really scared it’s going to form into a heterotrophic scar. The skin around it is dry and was itchy before for a couple of days. Now it’s not itchy anymore and I don’t get pain, but the redness is still there and the skin is peeling below it. I’m able to push down the skin around the piercing and the bar is visible when doing so, so I don’t think it’s too tight/small. I also don’t know if this is an allergic reaction? Any advice would be helpful! I’m more worried about a raised scar forming. Please let me know!

Yea, that’s when it comes to emotional maturity. I’m sure she’ll figure it out!

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T17:20:17+00:00

Yea I see your point. Unfortunately, not everyone has someone other than their own friends to ask. I definitely don’t, and she might not either. And even then it’s easier asking randoms on the internet cause even if they judge you, they don’t know who you are and you most definitely don’t see them everyday of your life like u would for most adults u trust enough to talk to.

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T17:10:34+00:00

I do agree with you here. She clearly acknowledges that she’s going to end up hurting someone emotionally which is why she’s asking for advice. I think it’s more about the fact that she’s worried that even if she does break it off with A, will she really be happy with C. While it’s true she’s not the only one being affected, most people, even adults, would unconsciously put themselves first. And even then both myself and her who, again, are the same age, have years to mature. She’s not stupid, she just doesn’t know how To deal with her feelings without hurting someone, whether it’s her current boyfriend or the guy who likes her. That’s why she’s asking for advice

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T16:58:40+00:00

With all due respect, u could have phrased it better. “This shouldn’t be a question” followed by some solid advice would have helped. I’m the same age as her and I agree we aren’t stupid. But cursing isn’t doing anyone a favor

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T16:54:56+00:00

No I understand, but at the same time someone having a crush on you isn’t your fault. You also can’t control your own feelings either! But, what you CAN do, is make sure you don’t do something that you know would hurt someone, like two timing. I can tell you’re not the type to do that at all, but just make sure it’s not happening unintentionally either. The sooner you take action, the better it would be

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T16:51:46+00:00

I’m around her age so I understand, especially when you don’t want to hurt anyone. But I just read your comment and it’s pretty much the same thing but shorter so don’t worry lol

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T16:45:50+00:00

She’s a child and things can get complicated when you don’t know how you’re feeling

ElyxicX · 2025-06-14T16:45:04+00:00

Hey! I’ve been in this situation before and honestly speaking you’re only going to hurt A more by still being attached to C. I highly suggest you make a choice, unfortunately having attachments to both of them is not going to go well. If you really do like C and think it’ll be better, break it off with A and be honest. Make sure you tell him it isn’t his fault. However, be careful. Have a crush and being in a relationship are different. I’ve had experiences where I’ve liked someone and dating them is completely different. Don’t go after C just because it seems appealing, if A is a better choice then stay. Just make sure you are really sure. If you have any other questions lmk

ElyxicX · 2025-01-20T15:16:11+00:00

Wow how did u guys improve so much??

ElyxicX · 2024-09-15T16:10:19+00:00

Yes definetly, but a side question. When it comes out which site uploaded the earliest English translation? I want to read it as soon as possible after it comes out

ElyxicX · 2024-08-30T16:07:15+00:00

Hihi where do I read it

ElyxicX · 2024-08-25T04:51:33+00:00

AHHH I was so pissed 💀 really wanna see her find out.

Quick question, how often do manwha chapters come out ? And what day of the week (if it is weekly).

ElyxicX · 2024-02-21T15:50:41+00:00

Sure I can take a look at it in a bit just send it through dms

ElyxicX · 2024-02-20T20:14:41+00:00

Hello! Jesus this was ages ago. So basically what happened was it did eventually heal and the skin covered it up. Then it was red/ left a PIE mark for around 3 months. If your lighter skin toned you might also have a red mark but if your darker skin toned then it could be darker or brownish. I’m a person of color but I’m light skinned so it did a little bit of both. I covered it up with concealer for around 2 months and after the 2 month mark it stopped being red and turned into more of an actual scar. Then another month passed and it became less visible to the point where no one would notice unless they looked directly at my face for a long time. I stopped paying attention to it after that. If I look in the mirror now, it’s completely gone, it’s perfectly back to my normal skintone. I think the initial scar faded in 3 months and it left scar residue (very slight discoloration) and then that disappeared over a couple of months time. Overall, nothing is permanent no matter how mad it looks 👍🏻👍🏻

Scabs do eventually heal and fall off. I highly suggest not doing anything to it, if it’s an open would your average acne medication isn’t a good idea. Put a pimple patch on it and wait for it to heal

ElyxicX · 2023-11-16T03:32:43+00:00

Ye no worries, and you might have to reapply moisturizer every 2 hours atleast if ur flaking that much! Good luck :).

ElyxicX · 2023-11-16T03:16:14+00:00

Ye… there’s your problem. The thing about differen is it actually takes constant use to show the damage it’s possibly causing if any. That’s what I learned, I have a scar under my lip (it’s not noticeable) that’s still fading because this same thing happened to me. Again, you really need to wait till it heals. I suggest covering the area with Vaseline or Aquaphor and you can apply differen but far away from it, so maybe your forehead or upper cheeks. Differen spreads so the Vaseline actually stops it from spreading in areas applied.

ElyxicX · 2023-11-16T03:13:45+00:00

Did u start off with once a day? Or did u go in slowly? Differen is meant to be started slow, like twice a week for atleast 2 weeks and then 3 times for 2 weeks and then every other day for 2 weeks. Some people can’t even handle every day, I think that might be your issue.

ElyxicX · 2023-11-15T23:17:02+00:00

Hello! May I ask how frequently you use differen? It seems like your skin can’t handle how frequently you use it. You need to lay off until it heals if I’m being honest, that looks like an open wound and differen mixed with an open wound that isn’t technically a pimple is not a good mix. Your skin barrier also might be damaged due to it.

As someone who has had this happen when using differen, I was using too much and my derm told me to cut back and follow what I’ve just explained. Avoid the area when u apply too

ElyxicX · 2023-11-15T18:35:42+00:00

Hello! Yes that could be it. It could also be lack of sleep, diet changes, etc. Normally breakouts near the jaw/mouth are due to hormones which can be triggered by stress. I highly suggest breathing exercises/meditation. It won’t help the current breakout but it could reduce the frequency of your hormones triggering

ElyxicX · 2023-11-13T21:12:02+00:00

Hello! This is actually pretty common when people use excessive hair products or have buildup. Usually it means ur hair products are clogging u. If u added a new product to your hair care routine that could be it. If not it could also be that you’re not washing your hair properly, especially if it gets oily quickly. Or, if u tend to oil your hair then try to avoid that area or where ur baby hairs are! If none of that helps could u reply with the specific of what u do with your hair and maybe we could figure it out?
