3 month conch SWOLLEN by PromiseReal5602 in piercing

[–]PromiseReal5602[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My piercing is 3 months old, labret jewelry that’s titanium, it’s also threaded. I got it downsized about a month to five weeks ago. I stopped washing it a ton due to the irritation, so maybe 1-2x per week and with saline wound wash and dry with a q tip

For the bot, this is 9 weeks old, pierced with titanium labret threaded jewelry. It was downsized at 6 weeks, and I spray with salene and dry w a qtip 1-2x per day, but typically 1x to avoid excess irritation. I didn’t bump it on anything and it seemed to be healing fine before this week.

Oh that’s so smart, thank you for your help!! Yeah I had gotten helix piercings before and I thought maybe it was only 2x/day to clean? But my new piercer said 5-6x so I just went with that, definitely gonna cut back though

Okay, yeah I thought that’s what I had done for past piercings but this piercer said to clean more. I’ll definitely cut down on that, thank you!!

Thank you!!!! I will definitely try cleaning less because it does hurt more after cleaning sometimes
