Question Posted Tuesday May 13 2008, 7:25 pm
i play sand volleyball and im thinking about getting my belly button pierced. I see a ton of people with theirs pierced who play, but since sand is starting up i feel like if i get it right now itll hurt bad if i dive on it/get sand in it, or will it be okay? thanks

Perhaps some gauze and a large band-aid would work. That way, sand won't get in the piercing and cause infection. If you do wear the piercing during the sport, you should try to wear a small stud instead of those dangling ones. There will be less chance of it getting caught on anything.
