Good luck! im me or drop one in my inbox if you need further help!

You should wait at least 6 months to make sure the hole is closed up and when they repierce it, the will pierce it under the scar tissue from the first piercing. Next time, i wouldn't switch the ring so early... wait at least 2 months because it could get infected or do what it did to you. Also, buy some extra lil ball things in case you lose one, you have a backup one! Hope I helped ya and good luck with your piercing!

You should go back to the place buy a smaller dumbell one and ask them to put it in, if they say they cant then ask them to repeirce it.
I dont know why it could close in just 3 days so maybe its infected and all crusty eww lol... keep cleaning it and if that doesnt help you see the hole then ask someone to look for you !
well.... i hope i helped

OnceABeautifulMess answered Monday May 30 2005, 2:18 am: Yes, you can repierce your belly button if needed, in most situations! I would go to a really good tatoo/piercing parlor and have them check it out! I am sure they have seen this happen before, and my even know a way to get the ring through without having to repierce it! Even if the do have to redo the piercing-and as long as it is not infected, then all they do is just repierce the area quickly.
I am guessing what happened is the skin started to just regrow back in the hole (I know that sounds a little gross)..but by repiercing it, they are just getting rid of it again!
People put spacers in their ears, so if your worried about the hole being too big or anything, dont worry, it may seem like it at first, but your skin/the hole will go back to normal size soon!
