How long does it take for a navel piercing to heal?
A navel piercing is not fully healed for year and should be continued to be sterilized and monitored during that time. Before that point, it is susceptible to infection and can still close quickly if jewelry is left out for extended periods of time and reinserting jewelry can be difficult. With that said, people heal differently. A navel piercing should lightly heal, meaning the pain will disappear in 1-3 months. If you have problems changing your jewelry, see a professional.
