A member asked:

Hi. is it safe to perform a true navel piercing. meaning piercing the actual navel plug as i have outie belly button?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Likely ..but: Without an exam I am not sure your navel does not contain a structure that extends deep into your abdomen. If it does you could risk a deeper infection issue than is common to simple skin piercings. If you stick to the normally pierced structures you are less likely to have a problem.
