Piercing Risk
Body piercing is an invasive procedure
and is not without risks. When properly performed, these risks
can be minimized, and most individuals who receive their
piercing from a professional piercer, and who take care of
their new piercing as recommended by their piercer, will enjoy
a safe and healthy piercing experience.
- Allergic reaction to ingredients of products used to
clean the new piercing
- allergic reaction to the metal in the piercing jewelry,
particularly nickel.
- Bacterial infection, particularly from Staphylococcus
aureus.
- Parasitic and protozoan infections may occur by
swimming in lakes, rivers, streams, and oceans during the
healing period.
- Excess scar tissue, which can be caused by improper
piercing, cleansing, and stretching
- Keloid formation can sometimes occur, particularly
among people who are pre-disposed to this condition
- Trauma to a fresh piercing, usually associated with
unintended entanglement of the piercing jewelry with
another object
- Viral infection, particularly from hepatitis B,
hepatitis C and HIV
