I got my belly button pierced yesterday?

It's bleeding. Not a lot, just every once in a while I'll check on it (not playing with it, just looking) and there'll be just a little blood dried around the barbell. I know this is normal for the first few days, but should I wipe it off? Is it good to leave there for the healing process for some reason? Or would it be fine if I took a q-tip and ran it under warm water and wiped it off?
my piercer told me the salt water isn't his favorite thing, only because it might delay the healing process. he told me just to wash it with soap and water. he's been a professional piercer for 12 years so I'm sure he knows what he's talking about.
