Ok well Im getting my belly button pierced next week (I have a volleyball club tryout sunday). Well if I get into Volleyball Club, We wont start playing until Jan-Feb. Once I get my belly button pierced, will it get infected if I just run and stuff, Im probably going to tell my coach that I got mine pierced and wont be diving anytime soon.

So is running ok for a new navel piercing?

mine didnt get infected running when i played with it in volleyball, but you might want to be careful when you dive on the floor with your belly ring in

I doubt it'd get infected, but it'll probably hurt a bit, and make sure to clean it well.

Also is there any solution I can buy at CVS or somethin to clean it out with

i cleaned my belly a lot when i first got it but it still got infected..and bloody..but now it's good

sometimes it bleeds randomly in the first few month...just try to take good care of...don't play with it all the time..
and you can run with it but stretcing and bending hurts

how does the peircing work? do they like hook it in?

i don't think it will, but you should probably take out the ring for practise and games. that way it won't dig into your belly accidentally.

When I got mine pierced they gave me some special kind of soap to clean it out with. Also use warm salt water to clean it with.
It shouldn't get infected when you run, just make sure that you get a smaller belly button ring that wont stick out too much. I suggest just getting a simple barbel. I've had mine for about 2 years now and it has never been infected.
Good luck.
