No............ quit using the Dragon Mist
yes the whole slug is cartilage
Well cartilage is the framework for the ear, this fibrous tissue structure has no actual blood circulation of it's own (remember it's just a frame) it gets it's blood supply from the surrounding *tissue (*the skin and it's many layers). When a cartilage piercing is done by a professional body piercer, the tissue is pierced larger than the jewellery gauge to allow the skin to form a tube into the cut cartilage and thus heal. We want the tissue to heal into the cartilage, if the jewellery is the same size as the piercing the skin has no room to form between the jewellery and cartilage and thus pain and discomfort. Circulation is another issue care needs to be used when laying out the piercing, fine vessels and arteries must be avoided when choosing a location to pierce. Damage to these can lead to decreased blood flow and longer healing times. It's really detailed work involving hours of study to understand the whole system and how it works. That is why ear piercing guns should never be used to pierce ear cartilage, the piercing stud is not designed to make an allowance for the tissue to enter into the cartilage to heal.
absolutely. i got all 4 of mine out at once too, and it was swollen and painful for a whole week.
ok, if its hard around the Piercing that's normal, its a callus forming, but if your whole tongue is hard, then I'm not for sure why that is, only thing i can think of is the swelling.
You get a needle, then you insert it to the whole you want. Then after wards, pull it. Then a whole will remain. You can now insert piercing.
This is a statement not a question.
i actually just got mine done at my friends house, she did it for me, its the same as a second whole piercing because it is still in the lobe area, but my ears are really small so it almost touches my cartilage so it pinches a lil... hope this helps:)
Look underneath them. If the whole near their tale is swollen, it is likely a female. If it's less swollen, it is likely a male.
Check with a doctor could have an infection
No, after it is healed and in good condition then your fine. Plus don't worry about growing in the month in a half you have it. It is is impossible! My whole family are doctors and i asked all of them and they all said the same thing as me. Now I'm a professional piercer inspired by my best friend Sarah So please please please don't forget to clean it out. Lets say you forget a day, you might be okay. But just so you know don't let that come to a habit of yours and keep forgetting about it!
Your nipples will get larger just like any other part of your body. It is normal.
i have mi ears gauged, and my cartlage. and when you take them out yes there is a whole about the size of the gauge that was in its place. but it will grow back, mine grew back with in a week to a normal size.
