Top 5 Scary Piercings – Part 3

Alright without further adue lets get started on our list of the top 5 most dangerous piercings part 3.

5.  Nipple

As popular as nipple piercings seems to be right now there are many potential risks that come along with it.

Such as- infections- nerve damage- bleeding- Hematoma- blood filled cysts- nipple cysts- and scaring. So yeah a lot of scary things can potentially happen.

Also its not a very well known fact but nipple piercings are also associated with hepatitis B and C and even HIV. I just don’t know if its worth the risk.

Its a lot to think about especially if you get it before you hav kids. You have to think about the future- and if you wat kids and plan to breast feed them.

If things go wrong that will no longer be an option. And if you’re a man wanting a nipple ring then breast feeding isn’t an issue put all the potential risks can still happen to you.

4.  Cheek piercing

Cheek piercings are known for their high rejection rate. They also tend to migrate and get infected really easily if not taken care of properly.

Just getting this piercing done by an unskilled person can result in an infection. Now obviously your not going to have your friend do it- but if you go to a piercing shop and get it done by someone whos not skilled in this piercing it can get infected easily.

If infected your cheeks will become red and swell. And saving the best for last- you can also develop Puss filled sacks on the inside of your cheeks.

This will leave a nasty taste and smell in your mouth. I mean its infection just sitting in your mouth. Yeah not cute.

3.  Spacers

Spacers are super popular but if not done professionally of taken care of correctly your going to run into a lot of problems. Each time you place a new gauge into the ear hole you have an opportunity to get an infection.

Putting in a new gauge means you are stretching the ear lobe wide enough to place the new one in. your basically continuously opening a new wound which your body keeps trying to heal.

Also if your not careful and use unclean gauges or instruments to insert the gauge you could introduce bacteria. Then theres the very real and scary option of tearing.

Basically youll have an earlobe torn in two. This is caused by trying to go up in size too quickly and not allowing sufficient time for stretching in between each size. If this happens surgery is necessary to effectively reshape the earlobe.

2.  Stretched open Labret

This is quite a bold piercing to get. You would definitely need to do a lot of research before getting this procedure done. You should also consult with your dentist first to make sure your teeth and gums and in good health and make sure this piercing wouldn’t be dangerous for you as everyone is different.

Apparently with certain people this piercing can cause the gums to recede. So it all depends on your mouth. Also since this is an open piercing theres a higher risk when it comes to infection. It can also cause Jaw bone erosion- swollen lips- tooth abrasion and tooth drift.

1.  Mandible

This is known as one of the most dangerous piercings you can get. This piercing starts at the base of the tongue and passes through several layers of tissue emerging underneath the chin.

This is a painful piercing to get as it passes through a sensitive area that includes muscular tissue and runs in close proximity to a variety of veins- important nerves and delicate cartilage.

So you would need to get this done by a master piercer. A lot of piercers actually refuse to attempt tis piercing all together.

Personally I don’t really get the point of this piercing I mean no one including yourself will be able to see it unless people want to stare into your mouth at which point you need to start questioning your friendships. Another downside of this piercing is that it takes a really long time to heal.

Also this piercing needs a lot of maintenance and tends to ooze a lot. So yeah theres that. Well there you have it that’s our list of the top 5 most dangerous piercings part 3.
