Most persons do get infections from piercings when they do not take proper care of the piercing. For example, touching the piercing with unwahsed hands, playing with the piercing, getting the piercing snagged on clothing and other objects, and mostly poor cleaning of the area.
Horrid, try not to get it!
no i never
If you believe a piercing has an infection it is best to remove the piercing and clean it with soap and water. Make an appointment with your doctor as soon as you can for further treatment.
puss is a sign of infection
Piercing cartilage with a piercing guns is the number one cause, two would be a secondary infection.
You can but you absolutely shouldn't. Your body is already working overtime trying to get rid of the infection and it wouldn't be able to handle a new piercing. The infection could get worse and the piercing would take longer to heal. A real professional body piercer wouldn't do any form of piercing lip or otherwise if you are fighting and infection. A gum infection is due to poor oral care, the chances of a secondary infection setting into the new piercing is very high. Get your infection under control and healed then consider a piercing once your dentist and doctor say it's safe to proceed.
First off, if its infected, be sure to go to the doctor. They'll probably prescribe an antibiotic, which will prevent complications from the infection and will help clear the infection up a lot quicker. it really depends on the severity of the infection and how well you care for the piercing. The infection should clear up within 4 weeks but the piercing will take longer to heal because of the trauma caused by the infection.
Piercing your nose yourself leaves you with a huge risk of infection. If you get even a slight infection, your immune system will be compromised and you'd have an increased chance of getting pneumonia. But you won't get pneumonia directly from piercing.
NEVER take out your piercing if it is infected. Doing so can cause an abscess. The piercing will close and trap the infection inside
As long as you follow the aftercare given to you by your piercer, there are no risks involved in navel piercings. There are no nerves or viens in that area of your body. Edit: As far as i know, theres no definite risks. Infection is a probablitie for any piercing, and from my research, its quite common on naval piercings so make sure you keep it clean (:
Increased risk of infection.
