I’ve had this dermal for a little over a year. I’m really not sure what to do I don’t want to get it removed I know it’s gonna hurt like a bitch

I’m 3 months into my industrial and I’ve tried everything to make this heal and I feel like nothing is helping, this bump comes and goes it pops and it bleeds for a bit then comes back but now I feel like this is puss I want to pop it but idk if that would do any good, should I just give up and take it out?😭

I got my ears pierced a few days ago, and I’m wondering if I have enough tissue below the holes to safely wear medium to large earrings (no more than 5g each ear) once they’re fully healed.

I just recently pierced my smiley and wanted to know if it was pierced correctly and in the right spot

I got them done 2 weeks ago then got them downsized tuesday on the 2 week mark PROFESSIONALLY

however im not sure if the bar seems to short or just perfect

I beileve they are 8mm

But i have brought some 10mm since I needed a new ball for my other piercing

Constantly leaking “slop” (best way i can describe it) and blood🤔 is this just an irritation bump? First time dealing with a helix. Got it pierced at the end of june this year

(pls ignore my teeth ik they’re crooked 😭) i got my labret pierced on monday and it looks like it’s nesting, but some sources say they don’t nest after a few days. the bar is long enough for swelling, and the flat back easily pops out of the pocket with no pain

I got this floating navel piercing back in August,It got a moisture bump and I’ve been starting to dry it more throughly (even using a hairdryer on low like suggested) but it keeps leaking pus that dries and crusts,sometimes it’s brownish.I think I keep irritating the bump because when I sit I think my stomach folds up to touch it,is this normal and should I keep waiting for the moisture bump to go away or is it infected??

It's been six months and I just changed the jewellery now there this lump and it hurts should I be worried

Ik heb wat advies nodig

Ik heb een 2 daith-piercings, 30 dagen geleden gezet

Bij een goede erkende piercer. Nu is mijn linker piercing een beetje geïrriteerd. Dus heb om advies gevraagd. Nu wordt er geadviseerd om een azijn water oplossing te maken (verhouding 3 op 1). Maar ik weet niet wat ik daar van vind. Heeft iemand ervaring met die water/azijn oplossing? Moet mijn uitgangen van de piercing er mee aan stippen.

Ik reinig nu in de ochtend met Medure zoutoplossing.

En s'avonds onder de douche met water en daarna de zoutoplossing. Ik maak het droog met een tissue en steriel gaasje.

Graag wat advies 😊

im wondering if I should take these out now? one seems to be rejecting/migrating. it'll be another 2 weeks before I can see a professional piercer but the one thats visibly further out is quite uncomfortable in my skin.

I expect the piercer will probbaly tell me to remove them, so im wondering if I can do that myself now/if that would be best course of action.

I got the piercing done last week so I've had it for exactly a week. It started off fine, there was really no swelling (I never really have swelling when I get piercings) nor pain. I've been cleaning it with warm water and a cotton swab pretty much at least once a day. I would really like to think it's only healing and is crusty and red because of that but I really don't know. I've never had complications with any piercing except when I had a Madonna, it seems fine like it's only healing but I really can't tell. What do you guys think, I really need help🥹

not looking for professional advice just some opinions, going to a professional this weekend. scarring is from two surgeries that i had. first is sitting second is standing

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m thinking about getting a Venom piercing (double tongue piercing) and would love to hear about your experiences.

Would you recommend it? How was the piercing process itself, how difficult was the healing period, and how did it affect your speech afterward? Did you have any major swelling or other complications?

I also have a question about tongue placement: My tongue naturally rests against the roof of my mouth when my mouth is closed. Would the piercings or the jewelry interfere with that? Could this cause discomfort or lead to problems in the long run, especially regarding my teeth, gums, or tongue movement?

I’d really appreciate any honest experiences, advice, or things you wish you’d known before getting the piercing.

Thanks in advance! 😊

I don't have that piercing now, I just want to have it inf future.

Is there anything I can do to fix this or do I need to take it out? Highkey my dream piercing so I’m pretty sad about this.
\-Piercing grade titanium
\-Barbell
\-Downsized once in August
\-I’ve had it since March this year
\-I clean it about once daily with saline and a cotton pad
\-Maybe irritation? I have no clue but I have snagged it a few times
\-Goes away and then comes back
\-Definitely has fluid in it
\-There’s no pain

Please excuse the body hair, but I recently got my navel pierced this July! As a chubby girl, I was really excited to get this piercing; it was a birthday gift from my sister. However, a cousin who came along also has a navel piercing and hurriedly informed me that my piercer had grabbed too much skin and hadn't considered my anatomy. Unfortunately, we weren't able to do much as I was due to fly home a few days later.

Since coming home, this bump has gotten bigger even when I would clean her regularly. Originally, I had thought it was likely due to irritation/infection, as I have a lot of high-waisted pants, my stomach folding in on itself, and her getting snagged quite a bit. In September, I couldn't tell whether the bump was getting bigger or smaller, but she would have periods when she was sensitive to touch and even hurt at the slightest touch.

At this point, I had decided to do some research on any options I could take or try to understand what was going on. I looked into floating navel, whether I have a keloid. Whether my piercing was rejecting(which I hope not😭🙏), or whether, at this point, I should take her out with the piercer, let her heal, possibly lose weight, and try to get her again😔. Does anyone have any advice? I feel bad because my sister spent so much money on this for me 🥲, and I was so excited for this piercing.

If not, are there similar piercings I could pull off? I wear earbuds/earplugs daily so I don't want anything that would be in the way of those.

hey guys (sorry this is my first reddit post) js wanted to ask if this is normal ????? looks like mcdonalds logo lol but im on my 2nd week / doesnt hurt / using non alcoholic mouthwash & brushing after every meal !

help an anxious girl out omf

kinda want an eyebrow one but lmk what yall think

I got my belly piercing done June of this year. It was great I didn’t even feel pain the entire week since the initial piercing. I would regularly spray it down with saline bought from the piercing shop 2x a day and it seemed to be doing really well. I was able to freely move the piercing through the fissure with no pain, no bumps, no redness, or issues.

Now this is where I go wrong… my saline ran out in August and I was too lazy to get a new one so I started slacking on my care. On top of that I tried taking the piercing out prematurely to switch it out. When I did this, it immediately started bleeding so I put it back in.

Since then, my piercing has become super inflamed and formed this weird bump on the bottom hole (shown in picture). I can no longer move my piercing around freely because it’s painful. It forms crusties from blood or puss and it regularly bleeds.

I bought new saline and even tried making my own to clean it regularly but it doesn’t seem to be getting better… but also isn’t necessarily getting worse.

I’m not really sure how to move forward as it’s definitely not rejecting. But the weird bump around the bottom hole is causing issues. What do you think?
