The most common belly button ring piercing problem is infection. Belly ring infection is quite common and is easily cured with the proper care and attention. Another risk with a piercing is that your body might reject it. If it does, this may cause swelling and pain. If your
belly ring piercing is causing you a lot of pain or continually gets infected, you may want to remove your piercing and get it re-pierced once it has healed. Infections may be caused by hepatitis, HIV, tetanus, bacteria, and yeast. If the piercerwashes their hands and uses gloves and sterile equipment and you take good care of your belly ring piercing, the risk of infection is lowered (but still exists).

As with other piercings, the belly button piercing is going to be swollen, red, and have pus. It could be painful. If the belly ring piercing does not improve in the next couple of days pull out the piercing. Some bodies do not like piercing. It will not heal properly and it has nothing to do with the piercing itself or the piercer. It has to do with that particular person's body. The belly button ring piercing can be rejected by the body.

There is no real danger by the piercing itself, but it is important to take care of it. The dangers are once it is in. The reason is that it is on the front of the body with clothing constantly rubbing against the belly ring piercing. People have a tendency to touch the piercing and transfer germs from their fingers to the belly button ring. Once it rotates into the piercing a few belly buttons can get infected.

Infections caused by bacteria getting into the puncture of the piercing may also happen later, even after the piercing has healed.

Another cause of problems from piercings is the wrong kind of jewellery for the area pierced. If the jewellery is too small, it can actually cut off the blood supply to the tissue, causing swelling and pain. If the jewellery is either too thin or too heavy or if you are allergic to the metal, your body can sometimes reject the jewellery (your body reacts against the jewellery because it is a "foreign object").
