Some After-Care Tips Of Body Piercing
Got your body pierced and ready to flaunt it! Here are discussed some tips that has to be taken care, in order to avoid infections and speedy healing.
One of the first and the foremost thing that has to be done after body piercing is to take proper guidelines from the body piercer, especially about the cleansing procedures. The cleansing procedure varies on the type and the area that is pierced. The new piercing has to be cleansed daily twice with an anti-bacterial soap and Luke warm water. It is better if the antibacterial soap is left for few minutes for effective cleansing.
See that you keep the piercings clean particularly if they get wet or dirty. Another effective way is to dissolve ½ tsp of salt in boiled water and then cleaning the body jewelry and the pierced area with a cotton bud. If any crust formation happens then wet the surface gently and then gently remove the debris.
Drying the piercing in a proper manner is mandatory. Never ever dry the area with towel, it may get entangled and may pull the jewelry. If the towel is unclean then may also cause bacterial infection. After cleaning apply the ointment as the piercer has prescribed. Clothing is one of the most important factors in after care. The clothes should be loose fitted and they should not be abrasive in nature. Cotton clothes are the best. Tight fitted clothes and rough clothes made of wool should be avoided for faster healing. In case of navel piercing, it is best to wear low cut jeans then high cut ones.
Also avoid intake of alcohol before and after piercing. It better to give up alcohol completely, till the wound gets fully healed. Avoid touching the area with unclean hands. Ensure that soap should be an antibacterial one. Be careful that the piercing does not get caught on other things. Especially on facial piercing avoid getting the make up done. For other parts like the lip and the tongue the requirements are different its better to check with the piercer about it.
Never ever change the body jewelry unless and until the wound heals fully. Avoid getting into pools and hot tubs that are source of bacteria, it can lead to infection too. And even if you want to remove the piercing removed never do it yourself. Always seek the professional help for it.
