Is it ok if you cover your belly button up to go swimm if you have just gotton it done like 6 days ago?
Waterproof Protection Don't expose your piercing to a hot tub, pool, lake, ocean, or any body of water, even if it seems clean. The chemicals in heavily chlorinated pools could be as damaging as the microorganisms and dirt in natural bodies of water. Protect your piercing with a Nexcare Waterproof Bandage, a Tegaderm Transparent Dressing, or similar covering. If you don't use a sealant bandage, then you should avoid submerging (or even splash- ing) your healing piercing.
How do you treat a bleeding paw?
Well i would advise that you call a vet and ask what you should do and in the mean time rap the paw in a cloth or bandage to stop the bleeding. take some cloth and keep it on to stop the blood How bad is the wound? You'd bandage it the same as if your child needed bandaging. It will help if you and your dog have a good relationship because he is not going to like what you have to do. First you'll have to clean the paw - I'd use Betadine, an antibacterial soap, and soak the paw then VERY GENTLY blot the paw dry and make sure the wound is clean, no little frags of dirt or pebbles, dead skin or any other foreign matter. Next I'd dust it with an Antibiotic powder that you can get at a co-op, maybe Walgreen's or Target also carry it. Now comes the tricky part - getting a bandage to stay on the paw and the dog is not going to help. If the cut is not too deep you can use something like Nexcare liquid bandage, if it's too deep for that your best bet would be to bandage it as best you can and then cover the paw with an old sock. He'll worry at it - be patient and he should heal well. Good luck
How long do you have to clean a nostril piercing?
I personally am a body piercer, and tattoo artist, so this is a specialty of mine- although your (hopefully licensed) piercer should have sent you home with a FAQ/Instructional sheet, here is mine: I certainly do think that having your nose pierced is such a wonderful way to adorn your face! Your next step is to familiarize yourself with proper nose piercing aftercare techniques so that your piercing heals as quickly and uneventfully as possible. Learn what to do ahead of time so that you can begin proper care immediately after the piercing. It's very important to follow the piercing aftercare tips provided by your piercer. You've placed your trust in him or her to perform the piercing, and so you should accept that person's expertise.NOSE PIERCING AFTERCARE: CLEANING SOLUTIONSUse one or both of the following solutions for healing piercings:Packaged sterile saline solution with no additives (read the label), or a non-iodized sea salt mixture: Dissolve 1/4 teaspoon of non-iodized (iodine-free) sea salt into one cup (8 oz.) of warm distilled or bottled water. A stronger mixture is not better; a saline solution that is too strong can irritate the piercing. I also do recommend the brand H2Ocean- it's amazing!A mild, fragrance-free liquid soap---anti-microbial or germicidal work well too. I recommend the brand Dial.CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS FOR NOSE PIERCINGSWASH your hands thoroughly *prior* to cleaning or touching your piercing for any reason.SALINE soak for five to ten minutes once or more per day. Invert a cup of warm saline solution over the area to form a vacuum. For certain piercings it may be easier to apply using clean gauze or paper towels saturated with saline solution. A brief rinse afterward will remove any residue.SOAP no more than once or twice a day. While showering, lather up a pearl size drop of the soap to clean the jewelry and the piercing. Leave the cleanser on the piercing no more than thirty seconds.RINSE thoroughly to remove all traces of the soap from the piercing. It is necessary to rotate the jewelry 360* through the piercing.DRY by gently patting with clean, disposable paper products. Cloth towels can harbor bacteria and snag on jewelry, causing injury.NOSE PIERCING AFTER CARE: WHAT IS NORMAL?Initially: some bleeding, localized swelling, tenderness, or bruising.During healing: some discoloration, itching, secretion of a whitish-yellowish colored fluid (not pus) that will form some crust on the jewelry. The tissue may tighten around the jewelry as it heals.Once healed: the jewelry may not move freely in the piercing; do not force it. If you fail to include cleaning your piercing as part of your daily hygiene routine, normal but smelly bodily secretions may accumulate.A piercing may seem healed before the healing process is complete. This is because tissue heals from the outside in, and although it feels fine, the interior remains fragile. Be patient, and keep cleaning throughout the entire healing period.Even healed piercings can shrink or close in minutes after having been there for years! This varies from person to person; if you like your piercing, keep jewelry in, do not leave it empty.NOSE PIERCING AFTERCARE: WHAT TO DOWash your hands prior to touching the piercing; leave it alone except when cleaning. During healing, it is not necessary to rotate your jewelry.Stay healthy; the healthier your lifestyle, the easier it will be for your piercing to heal. Get enough sleep and eat a nutritious diet. Exercise during healing is fine; listen to your body.Make sure your bedding is washed and changed regularly. Wear clean, comfortable, breathable clothing that protects your piercing while you are sleeping.Showers tend to be safer than taking baths, as bathtubs can harbor bacteria. If you bathe in a tub, clean it well before each use and rinse off your piercing when you get out.NOSE PIERCING AFTERCARE: WHAT TO AVOIDAvoid cleaning with Betadine®, Hibiciens®, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, other harsh or scented soaps, as these can damage cells. Also avoid ointments as they prevent necessary air circulation.Avoid Bactine®, Neosporin®, pierced ear care solutions and other products containing Benzalkonium Chloride (BZK). These can be irritating and are not intended for long term wound care.Avoid over-cleaning. This can delay your healing and irritate your piercing.Avoid undue trauma such as friction from clothing, excessive motion of the area, playing with the jewelry, and vigorous cleaning. These activities can cause the formation of unsightly and uncomfortable scar tissue, migration, prolonged healing, and other complications.Avoid all oral contact, rough play, and contact with others' bodily fluids on or near your piercing during healing.Avoid stress and recreational drug use, including excessive caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol. This all can cause slower or improper healing.Avoid submerging the piercing in unhygenic bodies of water such as lakes, pools, hot tubs, etc. Or, protect your piercing using a waterproof wound-sealant bandage (such as 3M™ Nexcare™ Clean Seals). These are available at most drugstores.Avoid all beauty and personal care products on or around the piercing including cosmetics, lotions, and sprays, etc.Don't hang charms or any object from your jewelry until the piercing is fully healed.NOSE PIERCING AFTERCARE: HINTS AND TIPS/JEWELRY:Unless there is a problem with the size, style, or material of the initial jewelry, leave it in the place for the entire healing period. See a qualified piercer to perform any jewelry change that becomes necessary during healing.Contact your piercer if your jewelry must be removed (such as for a medical procedure). There are non-metallic jewelry alternatives available.Leave jewelry in at all times. Even old or well-healed piercing can shrink or close in minutes even after having been there for years. If removed, re-insertion can be difficult or impossible.With clean hands or paper product, be sure to regularly check threaded ends on your jewelry for tightness. ("Righty-tighty, lefty-loosey.")Carry a clean spare ball in case of loss or breakage.Should you decide you no longer want the piercing, simply remove the jewelry (or have a professional piercer remove it) and continue cleaning the piercing until the hole closes. In most cases only a small mark will remain.In the event an infection is suspected, quality jewelry or an inert alternative should be left in place to allow for drainage or the infection. If the jewelry is removed, the surface cells can close up, which can seal the infection inside the piercing channel and result in an abscess. Do not remove jewelry unless instructed to by a medical professional.NOSE PIERCING AFTERCARE: FOR PARTICULAR AREAS: EAR/EAR CARTILAGE AND FACIAL:Use the T-shirt trick: Dress your pillow in a large, clean T-shirt and turn it nightly; one clean T-shirt provides four clean surfaces for sleeping.Maintain cleanliness of telephones, headphones, eyeglasses, helmets, hats, and anything that contacts the pierced area.Use cation when styling your hair and advise your stylist of a new or healing piercing.Each body is unique and healing times vary considerably. Although, for nose piercings- it is generally around 6-8 weeks. If you have any questions at all, please contact your piercer, or feel free to send me a message!
