How long must you wait to go sunless tanning after recieving a dermal piercing?
Dermal piercings are single point piercings and are not at all like normal piercings that have an entry and exit point so more care needs to be used in looking after them in the early healing stages. The dermal will discharge just like a normal piercing this needs to be rinsed away daily, subjecting the dermal to tanning beds, tanning oils and even spray tanner is not a good idea for the first few weeks post piercing. The coatings on the skin (spray tanner and tanning oils) should never be allowed to get into the piercing, it's a puncture wound, and will react negatively to these solutions and oils. Ultra violet light doesn't help the healing process and can create a hot spot at the piercing sight damaging the newly pierced tissue. It can take up to three months for the body to heal a dermal anchor, so covering it with a round band-aid while using a tanning booth or bed is a good idea.
What is the healing process for a micro dermal piercing?
Simply washing the piercing under running water daily, leaving the dermal exposed during the day time to allow for fresh air to aid in the healing and then applying a round band aid on the dermal at night to prevent snagging and rubbing. this is generally only for the first two weeks post implant. Once the implant has "set" it should be o.k. to go without the band aid at night, however if you are prone to rubbing the dermal or the snag hazard is high the band aid will protect and prolong the dermal's life span.
What care should a patient receive after an aldolase test?

How do you detect arterial puncture and if it happens what should you do?
I assume the 'puncture' is accidental. An arterial puncture is characterized by bright red blood (as opposed to darker venous blood). Arterial cuts bleed fast and forceful, often in time with the heartbeat. If that happens, get thee to an emergency room-quick!
