I have a belly button ring that I want to take out...after 11 years!

It's a simple silver ring, with a ball attached. I always thought I'd just need to unscrew the ball but it's not working and now it's starting to hurt again!

How the heck else is it supposed to come off?!

What about where you got the navel ring from? I'm sure they carry extras.
Thats my thought exactly

Teri I still have an indentation where mine was, and I took it out about 8 years ago!

Yeah, I figured I'd definitely have a small scar or mark there for life, but let's face it, the older I guess, the less likely I am to wear a bikini or show off my belly in any way, so does it really matter?!

I just hope it doesn't take too long for the hole to close up...I'd hate to get it infected. For now, I have it covered with a bandage just to make sure it stays clean.

I took mine out, for good, over 5 years ago the scar still hasn't faded or gotten any smaller....
I'm sad to say I think it's there to stay....

you can go back to a tatto/piercing place and have them take it out - thats what i did. I had the same type as you and I couldn't get it out - that and I was to scared to try too long!
