It sounds infected. You should see a doctor. In the meantime, I would suggest gently washing the area with rubbing alcohol and applying Bacitracin (or the generic kind, found at drugstores), a topical antibiotic. Pour vodka on it and get to a doctor or A&E department fairly quickly.
Green soap is never to be used on puncture wound (which a piercing is). If you have been instructed to use green soap then you have been given harmful information. See another professional body piercer of assistance.

Not at all - because you went to a reputable piercing salon, your belly ring is just secreting anti-microbial compounds to prevent such an infection from happening. Good call.

Puss is green and quite odiferous as opposed to lymphatic fluid which comes out white and hardens to a yellowish amber color usually and doesn't smell that much at all. The latter of the two is a common result of a fresh piercing and all people with piercings will get these. It is too early for the piercing to become infected to the point of producing puss, so it is surely lymphatic fluid.

Signs of an infected piercing Redness, discharge of green puss, swelling, tenderness and possible warm to the touch. The quickest way to resolve an infected piercing is to irrigate the piercing under warm running water while moving the jewellery back and forth through the piercing allowing the water to rinse the jewellery off. If you are using after care products to clean your piercing cease using all of them (this way we can find out if the aftercare product is causing the problem). Irrigating the piercing twice a day under warm water while moving the jewellery will rinse the puss and other matter out of the piercing. Once you have completed the rinsing, dry the piercing with clean tissue and leave it alone, don't apply anything else to the piercing. This should resolve and infected piercing within 24 to 48 hours.
