I got my belly button pierced about a week ago. I clean it with salt water and I put antibiotic ointment on it. I clean it 4 times a day and add the ointment on every time I clean it. But now there is a red circle around the piercing about the size of the top ball and its peeling. It doesnt hurt anymore unless it gets snaged or its pushed on. I dont touch with my hands not even to put the ointment on I use qtips. In the morning there is crusties but I was told thats normal. What is wrong with my piercing? Is this normal? What do I do to fix it? Should I take it out? Please help. Thank you. (link)

Totally normal. The crust around the top is the skin trying to heal around the top. And its red, well, because you just stuck a piece of metal in your skin ;) just keep doing what you are, and dont pick at it or touch it. It sometimes can take longer to heal if it keeps getting snagged.
Ive had a lot of other piercings as well.so hit me up if you have anymore questions :)
