Definitely NOT a good idea. I watched a programme on TV here in the UK about a lad who died from having a piercing, he also had a heart condition. I can't remember the exact medical reasons for this, but definitely consult your doctor first. Chris

Can you get your cartilage pierced at walmart in claremont nh?
Well if they do ear piercing then they may be dumb enough to pierce the cartilage too. Listen you need to understand what you are not being told by these places when you want a piercing. They are not telling you they have no health inspection to do any form of ear piercing, nor do they have any form of business license to do ear piercing. You pay your money and really take your chances, seriously. Every year hospital emergency rooms and doctor's clinics see more piercing gun mistakes, piercings done incorrectly, with unclean materials, incorrect aftercare routines I could go on. If you want ear cartilage piercings done correctly and professionally then go to any local body piercing studio and talk to a body piercer. They are licensed and inspected to provide the service in a safe and professional manner and will help you if your run in to trouble.
When you know your heart stops beating when you pass out can this cause death?
well! yes! But i doubt that your heart did stop because if it did you would need resuscitation using a defibrillator. So your heart probably didn't stop! It may have been a murmur or tremor (still dangerous) so to be safe go to a doctor and they can do a cardiac rate test and an ultrasound to check everything is working fine.
