Can I use the solution for my contact lenses to clean my navel piercing?

I don't have the solution in a bottle or anything; I have daily lenses that I throw away so the solution I'd use is in the little sachets with the contacts in.. But if I took the contacts out with clean fingers and used a cotton bud to dip in, would that still be sterile? Or would it not be advised? Thanks

    No, that stuff contains chemicals in it that are not healthy for your piercing. You should be doing sea salt soaks twice a day for 5-10 minutes each soak with 1/4th of a teaspoon of non-iodized sea salt to 8oz of hot water. Pour some into a clean shot glass, bend over at the waist, hold the glass tightly to your stomach and then lean back and it will form a suction to properly soak it. No cotton buds.
