Will an infection in a belly piercing cause flu symptoms?

Med eval ASAP!: If your naval piercing is infected and you have suffering from generalized sxs- please get medical carea right now. Maybe you just have the flu and an infection but it is important to ensure that the infection has not seeded other parts of your body.
