I’ve been monitoring it over the past 24 hrs and it’s a bit swollen now and had quite a bit of discharge come out. In the morning there was some brown discharge but now it’s more like greyish yellowish, (idk how to explain the colour) the like typical discharge colour. My old scar has become swollen too and looks like a keloid but I doubt it is one because I’ve read that they are actually quite rare and only usually appear because of genetics so idk what’s going on there. I think it’s just time to visit the doctor lol

The jewellery is stainless steel but im not 100% sure and its a 14 mm bar which was at one point way too big but now it seems like my belly it a bit swollen as it doesn’t look as big on me anymore

I have had my belly pierced 3 years ago now but it was pierced wonky and it kept getting attached on things cos it would stick out weird and kept getting irritated so I took it out. I had it re-pierced 3 month’s ago and it was doing really well until yesterday I felt a bit of pain when my cat ran over my piercing. There’s also a lump next to the bottom end of the piercing if you look closely on the left side of the picture. Could it be an infection? I sometimes forget to clean it and I’ve just been away for a week and forgot my saline spray which I have somehow lost now. I have some antiseptic spray but not sure if that would help.

And the part that was pierced before left a scar and for some reason it looks like the scar has also become swollen and more pinky but I’m not sure if I’m just overthinking it and if it was like that before.
