Could Stinging Sensation And Tenderness In Skin Be Due To Navel Piercing?

I have a stinging sensation right over my belly button, it feels like a bee is stinging me. I have extremely sensitive skin and it s reacting to something but this feeling is different that my normal skin reactions. I have a belly button piercing that s healed if that helps.

Hello,

It can be related to naval piercing. Minor nerves get involved after naval piercing and it may be the reason for pain.

As of now you can use analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
