I take 5 mg of coumadin, can I get my belly button pierced? I accidentally picked a scab and didn t bleed heavy and it scabbed over quickly. I ve even been scratched by my big dog jumping on me and healed normally. My doctor told me that he didn t really see a problem as did the lady that does the piercings, but I have heard horror stories online.
Hi. Coumadin is an anticoagulant. This prevents clotting of blood. The main concern is bleeding following body piercing.It's a possibility after belly button piercing. However, it should be major. Since you have had minor scratches without any overt bleeding, It's quite unlikely that you will have it now. So be reassured. Hope this answers your query Thanks and Regards Chat Doctor.
