nose pierced?? im thinking about getting it done. was it v.sore? did it get infected? all comments welcome! thanks, Sarah

I had mine done years ago. I do not recommend it! I got a cold about 5 days after having it done and it was so painful! Imagine trying to get it to heal up when you are blowing your nose every 2 minutes! Took it out after a week and would NEVER have it done again!

I do have my tongue pierced though which i love! Had it done 6 years ago and never regretted it for a second. It is like a comfort blanket or something! lol! It hurts like hell for about 5 days, and your tongue is very swollen so you cant talk properly and have to live off jelly and angel delight (yum!) but it heals really quickly and well and i have never had any problems with it. Great topic of conversation too as people are always gobsmacked when they see it!

Yes, had it done about 11 years ago now, and never had any problems with it. You have to blow each nostril seperately but you soon get the hang of it, and unless you have a lot of colds or hayfever it shouldn't be a problem. You also have to be a bit carefull when pulling jumpers etc over your head as somwtimes the stud can get caught on them and get pulled out. Mine was a little sore for a few days and then was fine, no infection or anything.

ooh not sure id get my nose pierced, had my tongue and belly done, but id be worried if i sneezed that my snot would fly sideways!! eewwww! Gross!! Seriously though i would have thought it would be uncomfortable, not for me! go for it though if you want to do it, if you decide you dont like it you can always take it out unlike a tattoo!

Congratulations. I could never get any further than my ears, would never have the guts to get anything else done.

Hehe I can't even bring myself to get my ears done!

My friend has ears (twice), nose (twice, including through the bit between the nostrils), belly button (ARGH!!!!!), both nipples (DOUBLE ARRRRGH!!!), and somewhere lower down TWELVE TIMES. Seriously. She did offer to show me but I deffed out so I'm not entirely sure how you can get that much metalwork into anybody's . . . .erm, well, you know. So, Sarah--where next?

I had mine done 3 times when I was younger, went gunky every time and the stud they pierced it with was huggggggggge! It was always Ok for about a month then started to go so took it out, let it heel then did it again! Also had my belly button done twice, same again Ok for a month or so then went gunky so gave it up. Have had ears done since I was 10 they;ve always been fine but anything else just didnt seem to take.
EEK Finn, shes a brave lass

[sarah1765]

im not that brave, i got my ears pierced yrs ago and they got infected and eventually closed over. i was reli young and im still not brave enough 2 get them done again! im not reli planning to get any where else done, but if i lost weight (which im trying 2 do) i might get my belly button done. but thats a long way off yet!

My friend had her nose done a few years ago now, it got infected and she had to take it out, then got keloid scaring and has a horrible lump like a wart where the piercing was, it has at least stopped being red now and it is a white lump.
