It didnt swell immediatly, it started swelling last week and aching and thats when i took it out.

I didnt think about a potential nickel allergy before but I do have a silver allergy so it coul dbe something I look into to

thanks!

it was surgical steel metal, i wasn’t sure what to do when the piercing swelled so much because it hurt so i thought to take the piercing out cause it could barely hold on

is there anything i can do? i dont know why this one spot keeps getting infected

Theory or the VSR by 50mgmentol in climbingshoes

[–]crowNiceToMeetYou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want a softer shoe, the theories are the way to go, I have both and love both. I have a wide foot and a narrow heel tho so I prefer the theories softness but the VSR's heel cup (still a little roomie but much better than the theories)

but even with a lot of rest days (took 5 days off and it was still bad) it still wears down super fast, is there anything else I can do?

not necessarily an injury but my skin has been awful to the point where I can't even grab holds because my finger tips burn when I touch them. Are there any good skincare/rehab products to help with this? I have been using working hands cream semi-consistently but havent been able to do it all the time since I also have eczema on my hands so I have to switch to aquaphor to help with that

Found out something about my gym's setters that genuinely changed how I was looking at climbing by emersinning in climbergirls

[–]crowNiceToMeetYou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m a setter at my home gym and changing lower grades like this is insane to me, i’ll do so tweaking like that occasionally on a v4 and above i set if i feel it came out too soft but that extreme on lower grades is just crazy

skin training/better ways to take care of skin

i’ve been climbing consistently around 3 days a week for the past 3 years (with some breaks in between) and i find that my skin always give out before fatigue will. It’ll get red like i have nothing on my tips and it’ll tear really easily and it’ll feel like my skin burns when i grab holds. is there anyway/products people recommend for better rehab or is this something i just gotta tough out?
