Ho long will it take my belly button piercing to close up?

What sort of job do you do?? Can you take out your bar and thread through heavy gauge fishing line..? Why can't you just tape over it? See HR. Sounds nuts to me.

Unless you are working with X-RAYS or other equipment sensitive to metal, it is none of your employers business to dictate what kind of piercings you have under your clothing. After 5 years, you should be able to go a day without going putting it in.

seeing as youve had it pierced that long i dont see the problem with takig it out before work and putting it back in after work although that could get annoying and youll probably forget you took it out so its up to you

mine closed up in a month so i think as long as you put it back in at the end of your shift!!

Oh thats fine.. you have had it done for 5 years, it will not close up. I had mine done for about 2 years, and i havn't worn a belly bar for around 2 years now, and i can still put one in if i chose to. It never really heals completly if you have had it in for a long period of time. nothing to worry about hun!

Mine has been out for over a year and it hasn't closed up. I haven't tried to put anything in it though. I keep saying I am going to but I don't know if it's healed up at all so I am afraid!

do not worry about feeling weird coz u where not weird b4 u got pierced. i think it take mo than a day for such a hole to seal up since it has been quite a long time. best be careful when putting it back take your time i would not want u to have stomach ex.

it shouldnt take to long to close over but you will have a scar there that wont go my friend took hers out about 8 years ago and she still has the scar.

About as long as your body decides it's gona take to sort itself out - everybody's different so i don't think that there's gona be one set answer to that question. I reckon roughly about 198hrs, 43mins and a slow walk around your fridge.
