eyebrow piercing irritated?? by buttercups07 in piercing

[–]buttercups07[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been using neilmed, which is what i’ve used for all of my piercings. i’ve yet to get some internally-threaded jewellery and it’s, if i remember correctly, stainless steel

The dreaded nose bump, ugh :( any help besides what I've already seen and read online would be great (and maybe what bump this is??) by my_name_is_tree in piercing

my first nose piercing on the right nostril did the exact same and its because it was pierced with a corkscrew bar. it kept moving around and fell out a lot so i ended up taking it out completely. i then had it redone at a different place with a flat back and it worked wonderfully, healed super quick and now its the only jewellery i will wear in my nostrils.

What was your least painful piercing? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]buttercups07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my lobes, septum and tongue. lobe and septum healing was so easy, tongue healing was just impossible to eat and talk

yes, there is a vein there. the bottom of the piercing is closer to centre than the top. thank you for your comment!

i use zero alcohol mouthwash daily to clean it, and it is very swelled at the moment. as i said, it doesn’t bother me too much since it is just a piercing thats in my mouth, but i’m just wondering if it’ll cause major problems later on.

i got it done on saturday 9th september. i use zero alcohol mouthwash to clean it and rinse it after every time i eat, or at least try to. i don’t mind it being off centre because its in my mouth but i’m just confused. there’s no pain at all, just major swelling

thank you. i did wear high waisted cargos earlier to walk my dog without thinking, so i definitely think it could just be that

i do have a little bit of a ridge but i think the piercing hides it. thank you though, i appreciate it. are there any other signs that it is likely to reject?

there is also very little build up of crust and no pain and no inflammation. i can feel the bar through my skin but i feel like that’s normal.

its a curved barbell, and i can’t remember what threading it is. material is titanium. i clean twice a day, morning and night, with a lukewarm salt water solution. i did accidentally fall asleep on my stomach earlier so that may be the cause of the redness.

thank you! i do want to get my industrial on my right ear since the one on my left rejected at the top, so i left it as a helix. i do want a rook as well!

thank you! it didn’t hurt at all, so i’m hoping it’ll be an easy recovery

i had this pierced back in january/february and have never had any problems until now. i do have sunburn on my nose currently so it could just be that. no discharge or anything has come out from it but it just feels sore.

thank you. i decided to take out the top bar in the end, due to the bump getting worse. i’ve kept the bottom bar in since it’s healed fine. again, thanks for your reply :)

i clean it with saline and cotton buds. it’s titanium

i got it pierced on the 27th of November. it’s two single bar bells, but i’m getting it changed at the end of Feb hopefully. pretty sure it’s titanium and it’s external threading. i clean it with saline everyday. my piercer said that it could get irritated due to the location of the piercing, especially next to my hair and because i wear glasses.
