Can you use neosporin on your Monroe piercing?

Neosporin and Polysporin are never to be used on any body piercing, read the back of the tube. It clearly states not to be used on puncture wounds, a body piercing is a puncture wound. Neosporin contains Neomyacin and Polysporin contains Polymyacin both of those ingredients will cause issues with puncture wounds or body piercings. Most people will react to these ingredients in an adverse manner when it's introduced into the body. These are topical medications for surface injuries only.

What if you used neosporin on a piercing?

Well considering it clearly says that in the event of a deep wound or puncture wound you should seek medical advice (it's there way of saying not to use the product on those types of wounds) and a piercing is a puncture wound. I would suggest you don't use it. Neosporin contains neomyacin and this needs the air circulation to work effectively and a lot of people are sensitive to Neomyacin. If you are washing the piercing daily using a good unscented liquid antibacterial soap and rinsing with lots of warm running water while moving the jewellery there should be no reason to use Neosporin on your piercing.

What is better splinter cell Pandora tomorrow or splinter cell ghost recon?

Splinter Cell is a very good game. I would go with either Splinter Cell or Splinter Cell Chaos Theory. Pandora Tomorrow and Double Agent are good games, but Montreal does a better job, usually. Ghost Recon is a war game that is very good. I've enjoyed a lot of those games as well. I would also recommend Rainbow Six ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Splintercell is the best game ever, i like all of them. But there is no "Splintercell: Ghost Recon"


When a person is shot and the bullet does not damage a bone it is called what?

The term "flesh wound" describes a wound where the bullet does not damage a bone. Flesh wounds can be roughly grouped into those which hit mainly muscle and fat, versus those that damaged vital organs and major arteries. People usually survived bullets hitting muscle and fatty tissue, but they rarely survived wounds to the internal organs.
