It not a french fry nor is it a pickle, you are not seasoning it nor are you preserving it so skip the salt. More often than not people screw up making saline solution and end up making a concentrated acidic solution that actually does more harm than good.

When cleaning a piercing does using uniondized salt hurt?
If you were to clean your piercing with salt by itself, it would certainly hurt! What people actually clean their piercing with is saline solution- a mix of sea salt and water. (A good ratio to use is 1 table spoon of salt per cup of water.) The saline solution itself should not hurt your piercing. However, sometime cleaning a piercing will irritate it. This may hurt, but the salt is not responsible.
