Nipple piercing itching?

Question

Well, I got both nipples pierced about 2 weeks ago. Is it normal for them to itch? (well, I dont really know if thats how to describe it more like a stinging feeling mixed with itchiness) How long does that last?

Answer 1

I'd go back just to the studio to make sure. I've had my fair share of body piercings, but I have never gotten my nipples pierced and am not sure if that is normal.

Answer 2

why would you pierce your niples in the first place?! who does that?!

Answer 3

Aaaaagh, you're making me criiinngge!

Anyway, you should go to a piercing place and ask if it's normal! What if you've got some sort of infection? You never know, it's different with everyone.

Answer 4

its healing its gonna itch and irritate, try a sea salt cleansing to help the process my friend got his pierced and it took a while because its a sensitive area and the sea salt cleansing really helped out for my lip piercings

Answer 5

Apart from the regular (at least twice a day) cleanings you should be doing, if there's any itching or anything, give it another clean with saline solution.

It is healing though, so make sure you clean your hands before touching it.

It varies from person to person as to how long healiong takes, but it should ease up wiuthing the next two weeks. Just keep an eye out for excessive discharge (lymph, that clear fluid is ok) or redness.
