Yes. Bodies of water are filled with bacteria so swimming with a new piercing greatly increases the risk of infection. Wait 2-3 months.

If the piercing was done with a piercing gun then that should answer the question.

You can get your cartilage pierced on whatever side you chose. Just FYI the right side is said to be the "gay ear" but it mostly just applies to guys. You can pierce whatever side you want since it is your life! Hope this helps :)

No Gays and lesbians have never used piercing to dictate there orientation. That's just urban legend.
Do you have to have a stud pierce on your cartilage on the ear when you first get it?
no. if you are not prone to irritation or infection you should be ok. Many people do though, because they are not sure how they're cartilage will react to a strange metal and they just want to be on the safe side. cartilage piercings are also not changed as often as earlobe piercings and so people like to choose a fancier stud or ring.
Which ear should you use to get your cartilage periced?
Well that's up to you, there is no correct or gender defined ear cartilage piercing nor is there any sexual orientation specific cartilage piercing. So what ever side looks good on you is the way to go. Here's the names of some of the piercings you may be interested in. Helix or Vertical Helix, down further on the ear rim it's a Scapha piercing, closer to the front of the face on the ear rim it's a Helix root piercing.
Is okay for there to be a bump under the skin right after you get a industrial piercing?
No. This is due to theprocedure of the piercing, needles can hang up once they pierce the cartilage and in doing so they can pull the pericondrial layer away from the cartilage thus leaving a lump. If the piercer spots this they can apply pressure to the tissue, this allows the pericondrial layer to reattach to the cartilage. New industrial piercings should if at all possible, not be moved for a few hours post piercing to allow the exit points to settle and reattach to the cartilage. Once a lump has formed at an exit point it's hard to get it to reattach to the cartilage if it's left too long.
What does a mechanical piercing in the right ear mean?
OK you mean to say "industrial piercing" this is a straight barbell through the outer ear cartilage in two locations on the ear. Right side left side makes no difference in the grand scheme of things and means nothing.
What is an industiral piercing?
First off lets see if we are talking about the same piercing....An industrail, and this miss spelling is on purpose, is thru the front cartilag near the top of the ear, and thru the back cartilage with a long barbell....If done right the rest of the inside of the ear will not be pressing against the barbell.What does it represent??? Nada, that I know of......Dont read too much into all the symbolism hype. Anybody might wear such a piercing and for every one who does, they probably have a different story or reason behind it.......TatuBaron
Can you get your ear pierced at the top of age 11?
Yes you can, however this can not be done with a piercing gun. This needs to be done by a professional body piercer in a licensed peircing facility. Piercing guns are not intended to nor are they designed to pierce ear cartilage, infact in most places it is illegal ( by local health regulations ) for anyone to use the piercing gun to pierce anything other than the lower ear lobe. The piercing stud will actually "break" the ear cartilage in stead of cut it like a piercing needle would, this breaking can lead to various forms of disfigurement of the ear cartilage requiring the services of a plastic surgeon to repair. Any location using a piercing gun to pierce upper ear cartilage is doing so in violation with most health regulations and the manufacturers instruction. Doing it doesn't make it right or legal.
