It's going to be a year and my belly piercing is not not healed?
Is this normal? What can I do to make it heal?....not sure if I should take it out or not

Often when people have a problem with a piercing, their first thought is to remove it. That should be the last resort. Think the matter through and determine if you have done anything incorrectly such as a jewelry change or lack of cleaning. For navel piercings, problems can occur due to clothing choices. Get to a piercer for an evaluation and try to correct the issue as opposed to abandoning the piercing.

Its hard to help when you don't tell us much about the piercing. How are you taking care of it? Have you changed the jewelry at all? The general rule is to do sea salt soaks twice a day, and have nothing else touch the piercing.
