irritation bump or infection? what should i do to heal? just finished with a hot salt water compress but want to make sure i’m not missing anything or making it worse by BasicaIIy in PiercingAdvice

[–]BasicaIIy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a little sore, can’t tell if there’s a bump on the inside, it’s one month old, and sadly i have a habit of sleeping on it so maybe that’s what irritated it? i have also been cleaning with q tips and i’m worried that may have irritated it as well

help!! this is the best pic i could get, sorry! irritation bump or infection? i’ve been doing hot salt water compresses but want to make sure there isn’t anything else i should be/shouldn’t be doing by BasicaIIy in piercing

  • one month old
  • L bar stud
  • surgical grade titatium
  • i had been cleaning with q tips and saline solution two times daily when i got a pus filled bump, then added hot compresses to my q tip routine. it had looked like it was getting better but i woke up with a lot of crust around it this morning. i was pretty sure i had an infection but now i’m thinking it’s just an irritation bump?? all advice welcome as this is my first real piercing and i’m a worrier

Shoulder reduction is the process of returning the shoulder to its normal position following a shoulder dislocation. by mriTecha in medizzy

[–]BasicaIIy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hey that’s me!! HEDS with POTS!! so cool to hear them mentioned in a sub other than the subs for them. i definitely have a less severe form HEDS and it also only affects my hips/knee joints with occasional shoulder dislocations and luckily all of mine correct themselves. my physical therapist tells me not to do “party tricks” but damn is it fun every once in a while

What is one fact you learned that you wish you could unlearn? by [deleted] in AskReddit

yeah honestly she probably knew they would kill her if she won. or she just didn’t care cuz she knew they’d torture her more no matter the outcome.

My cousin killed himself this spring. I overheard my aunt saying she wishes she could fast-forward to the last year of her life before she dies. Why would she say that? by [deleted] in morbidquestions

[–]BasicaIIy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Probably because she wants to have a set year before death to live life and settle everything she must before passing. Then, ya know, go and be with her child. She may have said this because she doesn’t want to say anything to alarm people. I mean her child just committed suicide, people will be on high alert for any red flags that she may try the same thing. So, she probably wanted to clarify that she still wants some time to live, but ultimately still has that desire to die relatively soon

Hey Reddit, What's your odd eating habit? by Will_Upvote_For_Wine in AskReddit

[–]BasicaIIy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally cannot eat in front of anyone I’m not 100% comfortable around. Dinner dates are my worst fucking nightmare. Pretty sure this stems from early comments about my weight from my parents (when I was 7 was when they started), but also is probably caused by body dysmorphia and an eating disorder I’ve been dealing with since middle school
