Suggest Treatment For Rash Formed On Belly Piering Area
Hi, I ve had my belly pierced around 2 weeks ago. I ve recently noticed a red rash that is forming in and around the navel. It is a bit itchy. I noticed that the rash formed after I started wiping it with salt water. I am currently wiping and cleaning it with surgical spirits. The rash looks like its spreading a bit. Please help!
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The rash seem to be related to an allergic reaction to the piercing. I suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application. I also suggest using Benadryl in the evening to relieve the reaction. if the symptoms continue, you should remove the piercing.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
