Piercing – care, features, useful information

It is most convenient to use a spray so that the hole is washed from the outside and inside, and the disinfectant liquid gets into the wound. It will dry out over time, forming crusts on the surface. It is strictly forbidden to rip them off. It is only allowed to moisten with an antibacterial solution to eliminate discomfort and pain.

It is also necessary to kill bacteria that accumulate on the earring. You can not tear off the remnants of the ichor that stands out from the wound (they usually dry out on the decoration), just moisten with a solution and rinse. At the same time, hands must be clean, disinfected..

How often to care for the puncture?

Many people are interested in the question – how often do punctures in the lower lip need to be treated? In the first week after surgery, it is recommended to do this every 3-4 hours. In the future, as the canal heals, it will be enough in the morning and before bedtime. The labret in the lip will tighten faster if you apply sterile wipes soaked in calendula solution for 5-10 minutes. With proper treatment, the piercing of the lower lip and navel can heal by the end of the month..

How long does it take to change the earring?

With vertical and horizontal punctures, the remnants of blood and lymph can accumulate inside the hole and further provoke suppuration. To prevent this from happening, while washing the wound, it is recommended to very delicately, carefully rotate the bar around its axis. It is not recommended to remove the jewelry from an unhealed hole without urgent need. Another tip: even if it seems to you that a beautiful piercing has healed well, do not rush to twist the first earring and change it to another.

Experts advise to wait at least three months, because the tissues of the lips are very easy to injure, they are delicate, a premature change of the earring can result in suppuration and rejection of the piercing.
