upper piercing at ear ma?

yupp

hey there,

no seafood for temporarily + eggs too

thanks!

hmm....mine hurted for weeks. well basically careful when combing and drying ur hair. NEVER let the towel kena the piercing part lo, if sangkut....( i cant describe the pain) haha thats all. enjoy ur piercing! welcome to the gang!

for weeks? oh em gee, thats quite long isn't it? arghh! i just feel the pain just now while drying my hair using towels, daym!

put some oil on it...and clean it all the time...

i so envy with u girls, cos i have very sensitive skins and the piercing earring my skin cant tolerate with it, pierced the 2-3days straight red + bernanah ..

tried so many thousand ways also the same..

what oil? i have very sensitive skins too you know? once kena geget nyamuk sure bengkak bengkak in a second! grrr, i fcuken hate mosquitoes for that! maybe u're allergic with silver, try using gold earrings?

if u r praying, then use some praying oil..just a dap only....
my grandma said, lotions also can, just a tiny bit only to prevent from bernanah..

nope i tried, fake stuff, real silver, real gold, white gold..all failed me.. haihsss

i not sked of nyamuk, cos i wont bengkak...only towards necklace, bracelet & earrings..

necklace only pakai gold cos those fake or silver also will get rashes..

Ohh you're allergic to accessories, so weird one. I cant wear those yellow gold, but white gold I can wear. So weird one I know :S I only wear those for raya, then bukak. Heee. Btw, thanks for helping. Really appreciate that. It is still hurting now

hahahahaa...when u sleep that time better careful!!

Ay noted!

there's was a similar thread about this few weeks ago. maybe can go search for it.

ohh really? ay ay thank you

it's called "How long does it take to heal" or something like that. Either way, it'll hurt for about a week or so, go on some antibiotics - not a lot of blood goes to that part of the ear so you do NOT want an infection

antibiotics? aihhh dont like eating med, rarely take panadols also. haishh. im scared of those infection, thanks btw

well then go through life falling ill and not taking medication then. if you're afraid of infection, you would take the necessary precautions and go get some over-the-counter antibiotics!

Would love to try this someday.

could it be the piercing senget already? did you pierce at piercing parlour or those accesories store?

no la, not senget. it is still there, normal. the pain reduced a little bit today. pierced at piercing parlour la. got piercing at accessories store ke? tak pernah nampak pun

im getting one soon...

I'm getting another one

hopefully you'll know how to take care of the new one better than you did the old one. lay off seafood for a week and take some antibiotics if you're that afraid of an infection. oh, and don't let anybody hit it

My first piercing hole is gone already, I took off the stud and I can't find the hole anymore right after that I don't get any infections, so I'll go and pierce again. Note to self, don't take it out for the first two weeks

u took it out and tried to put it back? it cant close just like that...
its probably still there.. but u cant find the right spot.. and i am guessing it hurts when u try to put it back it thats why u assume its gone.. >.<

Yeah I tried for 3 fcuken hours, but I cant find the hole. So that's it la. I think it's already closed by now. Going to pierce again tomorrow

In your case, I think the hole is not closed yet la. U just couldn't find the hole.
Take care of your food. Dont eat seafood, egg yolk, chicken.

But I took it off three days ago already. And I just pierced last week, on the 10th I think. It's still new. Now I seriously can't put the stud anymore inside the hole. Wohh seems like can't eat anything then!

oh~ u took it off 3 days ago?? now sure closed edi le~
but when u took it out that time... can put back wan.. jus that... it will hurt more.. cuz the hole still very small nee..~
oh well.. guess u gotta pierce again.. but i dont suggest so soon if u are gonna do it at the same spot...
cuz the wound notchet heal.. give it a while le~

It heals already oh, there's no mark on it also. No swollen, nothing! Weird ay? Super fast healing process. Yeah I can't find the ending hole, its stuck inside my ears. Lol

Added on November 17, 2010, 10:19 pmOh well, I didn't susahkan you pun right? Why on earth you want to call people stupid, you're so clever is it? Stupid can learn, that's okayh.

erm.. well.. make sure the next time u do the piercing..
dont remove the earring even though it hurts..
good luck

thanks

So u gonna pierce at the same spot again?
Actually still not sure which upper part of your ear u pierced at.

does it matter if it inconvenienced me? I tell everybody who wants to get a cartilage piercing or everybody who got a cartilage piercing that it takes two weeks to heal and about a month or so to FULLY heal ... and you bloody went and took the stud out after a week. Padan muka.

Now you're going to be piercing scar tissue, which will hurt even more. Padan muka again.

Also, yes, in this case, I AM smarter than you are. I do research before I start doing shit to my body.

Chill spunkberry. Not everyone have the luxury of time for research. Bad time management doesn't warrant name callings. So chill.

nope, a little bit lower than before. pierced already, less hurt

well because i didn't know about it la i asked. so that i would learn. i did not pierced at the same spot btw. a little bit lower and it doesn't hurt. not till now la. thanks anyway sifu

This time make sure u don't remove it again.

Haha sure

there can be many reasons for not being able to conduct a tiny bit of research. I said time cos I find it most likely. When you're working, you don't get online for personal usage. and maybe no internet at home? It's Malaysia, Not the entire Malaysia's connected yet. AND streamyx has been up to some no good. They kept resetting connections when they detect certain speed.

time could also mean that she had a time frame to get piercings. for religion, tradition or a job(actress/dancers to look the part they're playing). Jumping to conclusions without solid points is simply not credible.

Anyway, my point was to stop personal attacks. In no part was anyone provoking you. Stick to the issue.

And your example is like saying you can learn anything through a single method only

I don't get how you read "stupid then learn lah".

Warm sea salt solution soaks ftw. Fill a shotglass with warm sea salt solution (table salt won't do) an soak your piercing in it. Make sure the sea salt used to make the solution has no anti caking agents or any other funky additives in it. 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt + 1 cup of warm distilled/boiled water = sea salt solution.

By the way, cartilage piercings take around 3-6 months to fully heal >_< . Not 2 weeks.

Just a side note, NEVER get gun piercings, especially gunned cartilage piercings. It can shatter the cartilage + piercings guns aren't autoclaved so they're not sterile ~_~ = HELLO INFECTION!!!

Also unnecessarily taking antibiotics without any real reason and/or knowledge of the type of antibiotic/dose/therapy duration needed promotes resistance .

ask around? there are plenty of tattoo and piercing specific forums online and if you can get on LYN (if internet's not working, how did she get on?), there are specific threads on here too. there is no excuse for "no time for research". Personal attacks? I don't attack her specifically, I attack people in general who do stupid things when there is so much info around here. Never said anybody was provoking me either. Some mod you are.

You know what they say: A stupid man learns by making the mistakes, a wise man learns by seeing others' make the mistake - and there was another girl asking about piercings in this very forum too.

@shinryu and you obviously know what you're talking about when you say not to use the gun on the cartilage.

Haiya, not everyone is the same mar.

My lil bro pierce the exact place with TS and he took off asking me to help to replace the ear ring with some stick.
I tried hard to poke inside and it didnt work so I just ask him to put back the ear ring.

If I didnt tell him, for sure he wont know lo and doesnt mean he's stupid also mar.
This world got so many things and we cannot be know EVERYTHING in this world so we cannot be call as stupid also.

Even last time I pierced my tongue and my ear, i never did any researching also.

Ear is fine just kinda pain when I sleep or hear calls but my tongue the first day I pierced I already tersangkut when I was eattin lotus root.

Walao the PAIN, I dont know how to say ! But it ok already la just got scar on my tongue.
Took off already bcuz my mom dislike and the scar will be the memory of my tongue piercing

you obviously have too much time in your hands to not see how time can be a constrain. You did not attack her personally? You specifically replied to her post. You're either too huge in denial or simply too arrogant to think you could get away.

"I don't attack her specifically, I attack people in general who do stupid things when there is so much info around here" YOU are provoking others. You ADMIT that you are provoking others. I said no one is provoking you. Name calling is provocation. So why are you provoking others? Some comprehension you have.

Haha, so you're one to go with the norm? Since 'they' say stupid ppl learns by making a mistake, that makes it alright for you to call others stupid when one make a mistake? And how does a 'wise' man learn without 'stupids'? Funny how you take quotes without understanding underlying meanings.

Why have a forum if a simple search online can get you all the answers in the world? If there's another girl's looking for answers in a forum, did you direct her to the right existing thread? Did you report the thread with similar topic? Did you help them? You are no different than other users that cry damnation on others but do not help them repent nor guide them.

+10
Nice one.

And I believe everyone did mistakes before from the day we borned
Sayin ppl stupid instead of helping them, just like if I scold my bro stupid for tryin to replace the ear ring to stick and not help/guide him,
isnt helping tho.
Wise ppl with hati yg jahat or Stupid ppl with hati yg baik, I choose to be stupid

Stop it, spunkberry, you dont go around calling other people stupid just because they didn't do what "the way YOU think how it should be done".
If you have nothing to contribute, flaming/dissing others isnt accepted.

My old piercing. First attempt on 10th Nov. The hole is gone already



My two new piercings
The bigger stud was on 18th Nov, the smaller one was on 19th Nov

BTW, thanks guys for all your help. My new piercings seems fine enough till now. I hardly feel the pain, and it looks like its fine there. I really appreciate all of your help!
