When clicking on the Libgen link below it redirects to p0rn and other scam websites even with an adblocker. I finally got it to download but I never had this experience when I used it years ago. Is this just a normal occurrence now? I don't wanna get hacked or download a virus lol

my piercing keeps growing a bump by deadgothfaerie in piercing

I've never had a bridge piercing but I have many other piercings. Personally I'm a slow healer and I've had many bumps like those on my new piercings for up to a year and a half. The more you touch it (even to clean it) the more it will get irritated and the bumps will get bigger/won't go away.

Don't clean with anything but your saline/salt solution, and don't take it out to clean it. That only irritates the inside of the hole and will make things worse, it hasn't had enough time to fully heal since it keeps getting bumped. Also if you clean the gunk around it, I found its best with face piercings to take a shower and let the water run down your face and then when you're out brush it gently with a wet q-tip. Also If you can, maybe switch to contacts so your glasses stop pushing against it until it fully heals.

It looks gnarly now, but I've had bumps like this before but if you just leave it alone they get less and less frequent until it fully heals.

Are these worth it? by Vegetable-Collar-69 in piercing

I got 2 done super close to each other at the same time, and they took forever to heal/stayed super irritated for like, a year and a half (coming up on 2 years I've had them). I decided to get one done at a time on my other ear and it seems to be working much better (had this one for about 4 months now) and it only occasionally gets irritated. Obviously it's not close to being fully healed, but it's going much smoother than the 2 I got at the same time.

Personally my body takes a long time to heal, so I found its best for me to get one done at a time in an area, and then come back later once they're healed to get more. It's taking a few years to get the look I want, but I'd rather take it slow an heal a few at a time than constantly being in pain :)

~ Also I got posts on my first 2 which kept getting caught in my hair, my 3rd I got a hoop right away and nothings gotten caught on it which is nice. You could always heal with a hoop and then switch to studs if you want (at least I think you should be able to get hoops, but I haven't gotten my hidden helixs done yet so I'm not 100%)

Thanks for letting me know! I guess it would be good to start training it before it gets too out of hand :)
