Asked By:Dynamic340669 in Miami, Florida

Hello, I wanted any doctors advice on this. I got a belly button piercing years ago and I took it out about two years ago. Still this day i have minor pain from it and sometimes puss comes out. I’m not sure if it’s a keloid or hernia or just an infection and i wanted to know if this would stop me from getting lipo 360? I haven’t booked because of this reason
