Wearing earrings made from lead or nickel can pose health risks. Lead is a toxic metal that can cause serious health issues, including neurological damage, while nickel is a common allergen that can lead to skin irritation and allergic reactions in some individuals. It's advisable to choose jewelry made from hypoallergenic materials, such as surgical-grade stainless steel, titanium, or gold, to avoid these risks. Always check for labels indicating materials used in jewelry to ensure safety.
