question: I had my belly button pierced in early September and I have had no issues infection wise until now. In between the two holes of the piercing there was a little spot that looked like scar tissue. I noticed that after I had taken a shower, the spot looked like it had risen. However, there was no pus or any other fluid coming from the spot. I looked online and read that I should treat it with rubbing alcohol. Since then, the risen spot has started to scab over. Should I continue to treat this spot as I have been?
