I would ask the piercer, but if you can`t swim, then just wait until winter to get it pierced. I know you wouldn`t be able to show it off until next summer, but it`s better than not swimming for a month. ]
DO NOT LISTEN TO THE 2 PEOPLE BELOW ME...i asked the guy who pierced mine...and i got a barbell not a ring or w.e and he said do not touch it and do not swim for 4 weeks..so a month. this is because if any bacteria from a lake or pool gets in the open wound it could become infected and will hurt a lot. the guy gave me this sea salt spray (that has been cleaned and sterilized) and he told me to jus spray my piercing 6 times a day. i would not advise swimming untill a month later..just talk to the piercing place and see what they tell you.
hope i helped.<33 ]
you can swim. i have mine done twice. just dont go swimming in a lake or river. mine got infected by simming in a lake. make sure you clean it only 3 times a day. dont touch it more then you should, and make sure you twist the ring when cleaning it. dont use rubbing alcohol!! ]
Well when I got mine done the guy said that swimming, hot tubing, bathing- those will all help clean it out. Mine has been in for maybe a month and a few weeks and ive already taken it out, switched it, swam, done evrything and its fine. ]
That is correct. The chlorine in the water will infect your piercing. Plus everything else that could be floating around in it. ]
