Piercings and surgery



Recommended Posts

Im ok with putting the plastic things in my nipples- but the prob is that my nose ring is not one of those twist ones... its got a ball on the end that prevents it from coming out... and the ball is too big to squeeze through the piercing hole to get it out lol. Ive tried but it brings a tear to my eye and I stop trying.

I had one of those before, the ball is normally small enough to work through.. if not, are you sure the front doesn't unscrew?

If all else fails, get some wire clippers and snip it off via the front.. put in the retainer, and buy a new piercing post-op.

Well I Think They Should Let You Decide I Really Dotn Beleave That Your Nose Is Going To Cause You To Get Burn. Now I Do Think The Nipple Rings Might Get You Burned If They Let You Leave Them In But I Think It Should Be Your Choice Either Way

use some KY or other personal lub on the end just above the ball to work it out. If not, you will have to cut it. I am sure any of the peircing places could assist you if needed.

It is at the doctors descrestion to allow the plastic retainers. Most do...
