Questions about Body Jewelry
No, twisting new piercings is not recommended. In fact, twisting or turning a new piercing can be harmful and may delay the healing process.
When a new piercing is made, the body responds by forming a protective layer of skin around the piercing site. This layer is delicate and can be easily disrupted by twisting or turning the jewelry. This can cause irritation, pain, and even infection.
It’s important to follow proper aftercare instructions for your specific piercing, which may include cleaning the area with saline solution and avoiding touching or rotating the jewelry. If you have any concerns about the healing process or aftercare, consult with a professional piercer or a healthcare provider.
It is generally not recommended to leave crust on your piercing as it can impede the healing process and increase the risk of infection. Crust, also known as “exudate,” is the combination of blood plasma, lymph fluid, and dead skin cells that can accumulate around a healing piercing. While a small amount of crust is normal during the healing process, excessive buildup can indicate a problem with the healing process.
To promote healing, it is important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your piercer or healthcare provider. This typically involves cleaning the piercing site with saline solution or a gentle soap and water solution, and gently removing any crust that has formed around the piercing. However, it’s important to be gentle when cleaning and not to remove any crust that is firmly attached, as this can cause further irritation and delay healing. If you have any concerns about the healing process, or if you experience excessive crust, redness, or discharge, you should contact a professional piercer or healthcare provider for advice.
The length of time you should leave jewelry in after piercing depends on the type of piercing you have and how well it has healed. In general, it is recommended to leave jewelry in for at least the initial healing period, which can range from several weeks to several months or longer.
For example, earlobe piercings typically take 6-8 weeks to heal, and it is recommended to leave the jewelry in during this entire period. Other piercings, such as cartilage piercings or genital piercings, can take several months or even up to a year to fully heal, and it is important to leave the jewelry in place during this time.
After the initial healing period, it may be possible to remove the jewelry for short periods of time, but it is important to keep the piercing site clean and to ensure that the hole does not close up. It’s important to note that some piercings, such as dermal piercings or surface piercings, may require jewelry to be worn continuously to prevent the hole from closing up.
If you are considering removing jewelry from a healing piercing, it’s important to consult with a professional piercer or healthcare provider to ensure that it is safe to do so and to get advice on how to care for the piercing during the healing process.
There are several things that you should avoid doing before getting a piercing to ensure that the process goes smoothly and to reduce the risk of complications. Here are some things you should not do before a piercing:
- Drink alcohol or take drugs: Avoid consuming alcohol or drugs before getting a piercing, as they can increase bleeding and affect your ability to make sound decisions.
- Take blood-thinning medications: If you are taking blood-thinning medications, such as aspirin or ibuprofen, it is recommended to stop taking them several days before your piercing to reduce the risk of excessive bleeding.
- Use topical numbing creams: Do not apply topical numbing creams or gels to the area to be pierced, as they can interfere with the piercing process and increase the risk of infection.
- Touch the area: Avoid touching the area to be pierced, as this can introduce bacteria and increase the risk of infection.
- Wear tight or restrictive clothing: Wear loose, comfortable clothing that will not rub against the area to be pierced.
- Eat a heavy meal: Avoid eating a heavy meal before your piercing, as it can make you feel uncomfortable and may cause nausea or vomiting.
- Ignore aftercare instructions: Make sure to research and understand the proper aftercare instructions for your specific piercing before getting it done, and follow them carefully to ensure proper healing and minimize the risk of infection.
There are several risks associated with getting a body piercing. Here are six potential risks:
- Infection: Piercings can become infected if proper hygiene practices are not followed, or if the equipment used is not properly sterilized.
- Allergic reactions: Some people may have an allergic reaction to the metal used in the piercing jewelry, such as nickel, which can cause redness, itching, and inflammation.
- Bleeding: Piercings can cause bleeding, especially if the piercer hits a blood vessel or if the person has a bleeding disorder.
- Scarring: Piercings can cause scarring, especially if they are not done properly or if the person has a tendency to scar.
- Nerve damage: Piercings can damage nerves in the area, which can cause numbness, tingling, or loss of sensation.
- Rejection or migration: Sometimes, the body can reject or push out the piercing, or the jewelry can move through the skin, causing migration.
To minimize these risks, it is important to choose a reputable and experienced piercer, to follow proper aftercare instructions, and to keep the area clean and free from bacteria. If you experience any symptoms of infection, such as pain, redness, or swelling, or if you have any concerns about your piercing, it’s important to contact a professional piercer or healthcare provider for advice.
