Hi,
I recently got my belly button pierced and have been cleaning it twice daily with a mixture of distilled water and sea salt and a diluted tea tree oil solution. The other day I thought I would put some dettol solution on it to kill any infection that may be occuring. Using medical tape, I taped two cotton balls with the dettol solution over the piercing, and left it for approximately half an hour. Later that day after I had taken it off, the area was starting to hurt and the area was red and the skin tight and stretched like a burn. I also noticed a few yellowy looking blisters around it. I have been taking naproxen and still cleaning the area twice daily, not with dettol. This was about four days ago and it is still quite sore and causes me a fair amount of pain. The redness and blistering hasnt seemed to have faded or reduced at all. Please help! What should I do?
