Body piercing question.?

Yes that is normal. You said your self you got the cartalidge peirced, that is the most sensitive tissue because its thicker. It takes a while to heal. So it while be painful, maybe even up to a year after. Just keep it clean so it doesnt get infected, that would hurt worse.

I have it done, and I can tell you that it is EXTREMELY easy to get off....but it is not the same for everyone.  If you are considering getting pierced, you should definitely make sure you go to a safe, reputable piercing facility with highly experienced professionals no matter what piercing you get.  And remember that no matter what you are having done there are always risks as well as benefits!

Its rejecting. I'm a body piercer. I see this all the time.\nRejection is basically the way that your body pushes out a foreign object, the same way it would push out a sliver.Your skin, dies in front of the object so it can push it out.\nRejection can happen for a number of reasons.\n\n-changing the piercing too early ( within the first 4 to 6 months)\n-changing the piercing to a heavy dangely barbell\n-wearing dangely jewlery that gets caught on things.\n-wearing cheaply made jewlery that is not surgical stainless steel, and is only stainless steel, it is not implant grade, and causes irritation.\n-wearing jewlery that is made wrong, the bar is too short.\n-getting a newly pierced piercing caight on something, or hit, or bumped on something. ( you also can it it in your sleep)\n-cleaning it wrong.\n-playing with it too much\n-rotating it \n-getting pierced with small or large jewlery\n-allergy\n-your body could just not want the piercing for no reason.\n\nIt could be anything. It could also be something that isnt on the list. \nThe only thing you can do is take it out, wait until it heals over and re pierce. The longer you wait, the worse the scar tissue will be. I've seen people wait so long, that the scar tissue is un pierceable.You must make sure that there is no infection firts. The best thing to do is to see a doctor, or your piercer first.\n\nI found a picture from a random website I'm not affiliated with) of a badly rejected navel piercing)

Well I would think that if the thought makes you queasy that would be enough to make your decision for you. It's really not that bad. I have a high threshold for pain as well.\n\nFirst they of course sterilize the jewelry and clean that area. Then they place marker dots on the exact spot where the curved hollow needle will go though. A clamp is attached to your nipple to hold it still. The actual piercing part goes very quickly. \n\nYou may bleed a little bit through out the first day and you nipple will be very tender for about the first week. After that It shouldn't bother you, unless of course someone or something accidentally bumps it. That always happens at least once but it only hurts for a few minutes.\n\nJust follow the piercer's care instructions and you shouldn't have any difficulties keeping it clean and healthy. Also it helps to carry a small kit with q-pits, neosporin, and anti-bacterial soap. You need to turn your jewelry through the piercing several times through out the day. Make sure that you clean off any debris before you do that.\n\nGood luck. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. I've had mine for five and a half years.

I think that what you are experiencing is normal since you just had the procedure done a couple days ago.  Keep your hands clean when touching your ear-lopes and use an alcohol swap to clean the area each day, and your ears should feel fine in a few more days.  Don't wear the same earrings all the time without removing them ever so often just to let the hole heal around it, not over it.  Too, wear good quality sterling silver or 12 k gold or better posts to prevent infection.  And, lastly don't share pierced earrings with friends

I imagine that you can. Several people get piercings each day, and I bet some are anemic and don't even know it. But just to be sure, you may want to check out this piercing website and ask them. They are professional piercers and can answer all your questions that you may have.\n\nhttp://piercology.com

All of the people I know have their's done on the right side!  I don't think the black freckle will make a difference in how it looks!  You could always ask the person doing the piercing what they think because they have been doing it for years in most liklihood!

After piercings, it is quite common to have soreness and swelling for a few days. But, you should watch out for a few changes. If the piercing hurts more than it did the day after you got it pierced, if you see red streaks around the piercing, if you have any discharge that looks yellow or greenish, then you might have an infection or you might be allergic to the metal you were pierced with. It is highly unlikely that you would have an infection after 3 days, but you might. And you should only have stainless steel in your piercing at this point. If you are experiencing any of this, or if you have any questions, I suggest you first talk to a licenced piercing/tattoo artist. They can tell you if it is normal or not. If you have any doubts, go to a doctor and see what they suggest. They might reccommend that you remove the jewelry or they could give you a round of antibiotics.\n\nFor now, you might try sucking on popsicles or chewing ice. Avoid ANYTHING spicy or carbonated.\n\nIn any case, at least consult a professional. Good luck.

couldnt help but see your name sweetie 16 theres no way I would let my 16 yr old daughter get her tongue pierced or any thing else pierced in less it was her ears. Or any age for that matter. Also when your in school you could get a bad rep people think things that are not always true . Besides that it is really  really painful. and could be something you regret. But with all that said it is your choice and the best thing I can say is suck up for about 2 weeks one isnt enough she will see right through it and wait tell shes in a good mood and have a talk with her as to why you want it. Hope this helps.

It's not really that exciting of a piercing, and depending on your ta-ta's size, you may not have a choice as to what kind of ring you put in it. I have large ones, so I had posts similar to those used in the tongue. Plus, because something is always rubbing against it, it gets infected easily. I would not recommend it. I had to take mine out for surgery, and I really didn't miss them.\nI also had a below the belt piercing, and those are hot, but if you are pierced to close to a nerve you get that pain-pleasure thing, which isn't always nice. Good luck!

It is the least painful piercing you can get, for what that is worth. It will swell moderately for a few days and be sore. Eating may be painful until the swelling and sensitivity go down. You may need to re-learn how to eat certain foods. You also have to be very careful of infection for the first few weeks, when you eat, food can become lodged in the hole and if it stays can get pretty nasty. Also, don't buy metal barbells until you are very accustomed to your piercing. For some time you will have a tendency to accidentally bite on the bar and if you have metal ends and not plastic you can chip your teeth. Also, body jewelry is expensive so expect to spend some money if you swallow your jewelry (which can happen often if you do not occasionally check that the ball is snugly screwed on). Your sensitivity to hot and cold may increase temporarily. As for sex, be careful...that's all I'll say about that.\n\nMost importantly: ONLY BE PIERCED BY A PROFESSIONAL. There is a large vein which runs through the center of the tounge and if this is hit you will bleed for a freakishly long time.

In a body piercer shop, and try to get a job. If you do, explain that you don't know how to. If your manager is nice, he/she will teach you well. If your manager is hot-headed, I'm sorry for the wrong advice.

Male piercings are gay. I believe boy piercings may be regulated but not sure. In the boys case it would point to early onset gayness.

Ask them to apply some numb spray before you get pierced. That makes it painless.

It feels like a quick pinch. I think the best ways to think about any piercing is, if it hurt that bad, most people wouldn't have gotten it done. And how many people have theirs pierced? Also, any "pain" you feel is generally over in less than 5 sec (if that). All you have to remember is getting through those few seconds, and then afterwards you can look back at how silly it was to be scared. And you'll have a brand new piercing that looks fabulous.
