I'm going to get my cartilage pierced today and I start gymnastics tomorrow is that a good idea?

Question

Okay so I really want to get my cartilage peirced but I dont know if I should because of all the flips falling ect. they do in gymnastics so is it a good or bad idea? THNX!

Answer 1

I don't recommend it. If you're just starting out in gymnastics, there will be a lot of falling. In gymnastics too, they usually take off jewelry. And you have to keep a cartilage piercing in for a while. Cartilage piercings also get infected easily.

Hope I helped.

Answer 2

Well, after your cartilage is pierced it might be tender and sore therefore if  you do decide to get it make sure that you don't land on it in gymnastics! But otherwise you should be fine, just make sure to be careful with it and clean it alot!

Hope i helped :)
