[|Human|] Hi. My girlfriend recently got her belly button pierced and now has a small rash which hadnt appeared until a few days after it was done. Its not itchy she says, but it is sore all around her belly button, not sure if this is just a result of having it done and part of the healing process or if she is elergic to either the metal or possibly the savlon she is using to clean it? Any help would be much appreciated Thanks AAAA
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor An allergy to metal will manifest as itching. The rash you mentioned is sore. So it could be an infection or irritant contact dermatitis to salon. Without an opportunity to closely examine the lesion, I would not be able to accurately specify the condition. You might need to consider a consultation with dermatologist for assessment and work up. Infection will require a course of antibiotics and anti-biotic cream. It is better to stop cleaning with salon. Just use warm salt water instead. Hope this helpedTake care
