  1. If you get a piercing and get an infection and are diabetic, you could have a lot more problems clearing up the infection than someone that is not diabetic.  You will have to really be careful to keep it clean the way you are supposed to. If your disease is not under good control, it could take your piercing a lot longer to heal up, and that can invite infections.  If it starts to fester, get inflamed, see your doctor right away.  You should also be concerned about Hepatitis, HIV, and other diseases that can be transmitted through piercings.  Make sure you get it done at a very reputable shop.  I myself, have had several piercings, and I am a diabetic.  However, if I would not have had good control of my disease, I would not have gotten them.


  2. The question that is not very detailed, but the treatment of diseases of the disease need to have a correct understanding, I will give you the treatment of diabetes, how to treat and prevent diabetes. Want to help you.

  3. I am a type 1 diabetic, have been since I was 4 years old, I have had piercings and never had any trouble healing, of course now that I am older and have a child, my belly piercing is gone, only have 3 in my ears. jeje. If you have trouble healing i suggest you don't but if never had any trouble I don't think you will have any then. Of course the mouth is full of bacteria so is more prone to infection, so high hygiene should be a priority.

  4. No, I'm type 2 diabetic and have a couple of piercing and have had no problems with them.  

  5. I think it will be a problem in your problem. No risk is better.
