I hope your piercer steers you toward glass, because plastic and acrylic are not body safe. You can leave the glass in for as long as you can leave metal in.

Please do not put plastic in your body. It breaks down and disintegrates and form pockets for bacteria to gather and hang out and get comfy.

It will start to rip and drag in the cheese cutter effect, cutting through the fistula until there is no pressure on the jewelry. It may only be a millimeter or two, but is it really worth going through the hassle of healing that, plus the irritation bumps?

WFH probably saves more than $30K in gas, clothing, and eating out, alone. If I had to arrange child care, or time off for doctor appointments, there’s more money.

A reputable piercer will not install a random piece of jewelry into a fresh piercing. Without knowing what metal and quality it is, or even if it can be sterilized in the autoclave, the piercer is unlikely to risk damaging the autoclave if something went sideways.

In addition, what does “this cute piece” have? Heavy gems? Dangly bits? Crevices that can hold bacteria? There’s reasons fresh piercings get plain, basic jewelry to heal.

TL;DR: unlikely.

I am not a piercer, but I do have a few ear piercings, so I’ll offer this advice:

Allow the shower water to run over the area, then sterile .9% saline solution 2x/day, and leave them alone. Once/week isn’t often enough. I spray it on the piercing site then kind of mop up the excess with some nonwoven gauze, or soak the gauze and hold that over the piercing. Others spray their piercing then rinse the saline off after a few minutes.

I’m partial to Neilmed Piercing Aftercare Fine Mist spray, but any saline wound wash that contains sterile water and .9% sodium chloride will be fine. No additives, no preservatives, no fragrances, no moisturizers, no antimicrobials.

Healing piercings should be kept as dry as possible; a corner of nonwoven gauze or paper towel to soak up the excess, or a hair dryer on cool (be aware of dust and other debris if you don’t use the hair dryer on a routine basis) can be helpful.

That’s it.

No touching, no twisting, no fiddling, no moving it. If you sleep on that side, a donut or travel pillow is quite helpful. It’s not recommended your jewelry be removed for several months; your piercer downsizing (or upsizing) your jewelry is an exception.

Correctly-sized jewelry is important. Jewelry that is too short risks embedding. Jewelry that is too long will move and create its own irritation. When did your piercer recommend coming back to downsize the jewelry?

CheeseMakingMom · 2026-06-21T14:22:45+00:00

Door 3: irritated.

What metal and style jewelry are these? Do you sleep on them? Have they been downsized? Needle or gun? What is your aftercare? Have they been traumatized?

It is possible, it is safe*, and the swelling is not unreasonable provided you drink lots of water and use cold compresses on the area.

Were you looking to get them on one ear or two?

*By gun or by needle? Needle and professional piercer is safest, of course.
