closing time

cajun_tiger

i've taken nearly all my piercings out bar two. some seem to have closed up over night(had them 9-10 months) others about a year and they are nearly all closed...

would i be able to reopen them or should i get repeirced?

If you need to use force or if you are causing yourself discomfort you will need to get them repierced unless yu want to really make a balls of the hole by forcing blunt jewellery through it.

You will need to allow at least a few weeks before attempting to have them pierced again and even then you will be piercing through leaher like scar tissue.

cheers bolox anyway.......

didn't want them out but had to could believe how face my counch healed up

Before getting the conch repierced you will have to wait at least a couple of weeks and I can guarantee you that will be painful.

Even getting my tragus piercied a second time was really painful. It effected the whole side of my head for a half hour...or maybe I just have a f*cked up nervous system.

you might not have to get them re-pierced if you go into you're studio real soon. I lost my conch one weekend, had it about 4 months, out for 3 days I think. Went into snake bite and he had this tool that was really slender (like a sewing needle)at one end but got gradually wider. Anyway he puts the needle end in then pushes it slowly, if it's not causing unbearable pain he pushes it intil he gets to the part of the tool thats the same diameter as the jewellery, then once it's held the piercing open a bit he can slip the tool out and the jewellery in.

There's no threads on the tool so it doesn't do any damage. Hurts a bit for a while but after half an hour its fine.
