Got my belly button pierced 3 months ago. recent hard bump below piercing just oozed out squishy red flesh-like skin or tissue. it's attatched & hurts?

Infected: The body tissue really dislikes foreign body like piercing and the area is thus more prone to irritation and infection. You really need to see a doctor ASAP before the infection spreads further.
