Irritable Bowel Syndrome Treatment

Question by kaksmileygirl: Will getting my belly button pierced affect my I.B.S? (irritable bowel syndrome) and more questions!?
I am 12 years old and getting my belly button done in November for my 13th birthday. One of my older friends said it barely hurts and everything is worth it after like a month or 2 because of the healing and all that crap. But I have I.B.S (irritable bowel syndrome) and I read that if done wrong, belly button piercings can give you severe stomach problems. My I.B.S acts up daily and when I eat fast food so I never eat it. I can’t take anymore stomach problems, and no, I do not take any kind of medicine for it I just try to eat as healthy as I can.

I have another question: does it really hurt as bad as some people on the internet say it does? I’m comfortable with getting shots and I’ve only gotten my ears pierced without being nervous at all. I don’t know how this could help but I do tear open my skin with needles when I have splinters and am not afraid to shove a needle through that dead layer of skin on your hands. (duh.) I am a girly girl and want to do this because I saw it and it looked extremely cute.

I also play sports – fast pitch, volleyball, basketball, and track. So how can I prevent it from getting like caught on my clothing ? Sorry for all the questions. I already did the pinch as hard as you can for 10 seconds and I can take that almost no problem. I am told by my coaches that I am basically an all-around tough girl for my age but that’s because when I was younger I was yelled at when I cryed and told to suck it up whenever I got hurt It didn’t offend me in anyway.

Oh yeah, this is the last one, I heard that a Store in Bedford, Ohio called A Nu Tatt2 and are they really that sanitary and good at piercings? I’ve heard good things from them except that they are kind of over priced but that’s because it’s like really professional.
