You need to wait 4-6 weeks after you get the piercing before you go swimming. The first 4-6 weeks are a critical time in the healing process, and during this time your piercing does not need any added irritation. Chlorine is very drying to your skin, which can cause your piercing to flare up and becoming irritated.
In addition, do not go swimming in lakes or rivers either. Lakes and rivers are treated with any disinfectant, so they have a lot of bacteria in and around them. If bacteria comes into contact with your new piercing, it could become infected.
Yes sure it is, As long as you aren't alergic to the chemicals in the pool. But you can of course go in the pool.
yes and you can also go in ocean water! I just went to Hawaii and i had got my ears pierced the day before! My ears are still as clean as ever! I was in the water like, 24/7 and it didn't hurt one bit!
Right after you get a piercing, your priority should be to keep it as clean as possible. Swimming in a public pool or lake might not be the best idea. If you do swim in a pool, make sure to clean it right after you get out. Even if a pool is kept clean, there's all kinds of other stuff in there and too much chlorine contact with the wound could irritate it.
Yes just be sure to wash the piercings once you are done.

If it is recently pierced and still healing, I would not recommend it.
Wait at least 2 months before you get them wet. You can go swimming as long as you dont put your piercing in the water.
Once the piercing is healed, there should not be a problem.
ask a doctor.
A new eyebrow piercing hurts for about 1-2 weeks and it takes 6-8 weeks to heal completely.
Bleeding after getting a new piercing is normal; a piercing is technically an injury & your body will (usually) heal.
Nope. Wait 2-3 months to swim with a new piercing.
no this is a sign of infection you should get it looked at by your g.p
All swim clubs are different. Please check with your local pool.
Its definitely not a good idea to as your piercing can easily get infected by doing this. It may also close up in the time it is out. Wait 6 weeks before changing your jewelry
2-3 months. Don't swim in pools, oceans, lakes, or anything else. Yes, the ocean has salt in it but it's also FILLED with germs. Swimming with a new piercing is just begging for an infection.
It may cause the peircing to get infected and/or start to hurt. i went swimming with a new ear peircing and it got infected as well as the diamond stud sank into my ear. this happens because of the chemicals in the pool.
actually there is a chemical called shock and swim made by HTH and you can get it at walmart. You can swim 2 hrs after you shock it. There are chemicals that if you shock in the evening you can swim by the next morning.
No. That could cause scar tissue to build up. Use antibacterial soap or sea salt & warm water.
If the chlorine level is correctly maintained this should not be a problem.
