Normal Irritation or Piercing Infection?

Normal Irritation or Piercing Infection?

We don't want to downplay the seriousness of infections or rejections, but a sore piercing does not mean you are experiencing an infection or rejection. Here are a few signs that you might just need to give your piercing a little space to heal, and conversely, a few signs you might need to go see a professional...

5 Reasons You Shouldn't Pierce Yourself

5 Reasons You Shouldn't Pierce Yourself

We've all thought it before - wouldn't it be nice to have a cool new piercing without the "hassle" of scheduling an appointment and finding a ride to the piercing parlor?

It's not nice! It's not cool! It's totally unsafe and here are a bunch of reasons why you should always trust a professional piercer when it comes to getting your next mod.

The Tea with Alley
Sip the Tea >

Nobody wants to suffer a complication with their piercing... But seeing as how piercings are literally puncture wounds, a little bit of soreness and irritation is to be expected. While infections are not to be taken lightly, a little bit of soreness or a piercing bump aren't typically signs of something more serious.

With that being said, it's important to be able to recognize warning signs! There's a big difference between normal piercing-related irritation and an actual infection, so I thought I'd go over what you can normally expect after you get pierced (irritation-wise) vs. what you would experience if your piercing was actually infected.

Today's Topics:

- Irritation - post-piercing (or post trauma) symptoms are totally normal

- Infection - some symptoms are more serious signs of infection

- Rejection - piercing rejection is an entirely different issue and doesn't necessarily mean you have an infection

- Aftercare - Always remember to practice good aftercare!

Dear Alley

Should I get my anti-tragus pierced again?

Dear Alley
Alley S.
BodyCandy's pierced pro & fashion forward diva
DEAR ALLEY:Β I have a question about an anti-tragus piercing...

I had one and it soon rejected. I think the person used a straight barbell instead of curved! Do you think it will reject again, or if the person pierces deeper it will take?

It is really a unique piercing and I really want it, but I do not know what to do... I would like to hear what you think!

Thanks,
- Lori

ALLEY: Hey Lori!

There are a few things to take into consideration here...
Β 

Is my piercing causing my eyelid to swell?

DEAR ALLEY:Β I got my eyebrow pierced a week ago, it was fine. There was nothing wrong with it until after the fourth day, my eyelid is swollen.

Could it be the piercing? It doesn't hurt. Can I put a little alcohol on it if its infected, or what can I do? I don't want to take it out.

- Debbie

Did I change my nose jewelry too soon?

DEAR ALLEY: I tried switching my nose ring only after a couple weeks... I ended up keeping the original nose ring and the after effect is a bump in place of my nose ring. I took the nose ring out but there’s still a bump. How can I get rid of it?
