Industrial Ear Piercing

Ok I got my industrial done about 4 days ago. After the guy pierced it he sent me on my merry way and didnt give me any aftercare instructions. Can someone who has had this done and it has healed nicely for them give me some advice? Also, on an average how long does it take this piercing to heal? Or at least for the pain to start to subside?

i had and industrial ear piercing about 18 months ago and i thought the pain would never end a friend of mine has peircings all over his body and he gave me all the advice he could give on industrial ear piercings and to be honest theres not that much to worry about, yer they hurt like hell but after about 2 weeks the pain had pretty much completely gone, even if i knocked it. for the pain of mine i just took ibuprofen whenever it hurt, did me just fine, it still tingled all the time but the pain disapeered for a few hours at a time, giving me a break. hope yours goes ok. abbi-melissa xx p.s if your scared of infection use a cotton bud and hot salty water or surgical spirits to wash around the pierced area xx

Okay Since you got it done and your piercer has never given you anything,that is a sighn not to use that person again.My advice is that you get Bacctine and sea salt.Everymorning spray with vaccine then get a q-tip or cotton ball bet it and put sea-salt on it.Then rub it around the holes.Or you can just use the Bacctine.But you can all buy it in the store!
Good Luck

"That kind of piercing can take a week to heal. just keep the area clean, and try not to handle it too much." My girlfriend is a state of Florida liscensed body piercer. Looking at the photo, I'd say you are doing the right thing so far.

Simple, keep it clean with salt and water, and for the pain take a painkiller. And I hope it feels better soon!

ok for all of you with this piercing, my ex boyfriend- who is a tattoo/piercing junkie, had this and now he has like an elf ear, it malformed his ear. So watch it. It is a cool one though!!!! He also had his nape done which was cool too!

Sounds like his jewelry is too short. Try getting a longer post, or, re pierce one of the holes so that the existing jewelry works.....

I have mine done and it tkaes 4 mounths to FULLY heal over
take a small dish which your ear can fit in and fill it with warm water add in some natural salt and soak your ear for fifteen minutes that should do it
it worked for me just dont add too much salt or your ear will dry out
