My belly button piercing hurts REALLY bad

I got my piercing on Valentine’s day this year. it has mostly healed, but now it’s back to hurting again. like THROBBING, AWFUL pain worse than when I first got it. it doesn‘t look horribly infected, just like a little crust at the bottom of the piercing. I haven’t changed my jewelry out in weeks, it’s the same jewelry it was pierced with as well. I cleaned it about three times daily with witch hazel and a q tip, but I slowed down because I thought it was healed. guess not, because at the moment there’s a constant throb and if I move my stomach too much, it feels like someone heated up a crochet hook and pierced me with that instead. I genuinely don’t know what’s wrong because it honestly doesn't look that bad, I’ve seen it look more gross but it’s never hurt like this.
