First thing’s first: Yes, you can get a double–helix piercing done at the same time. In fact, it’s recommended considering the healing time of cartilage piercings (more on that later!)
Likewise, people ask, is a helix piercing Dangerous?
The cartilage of the ear, in particular, can become susceptible to unique scarring, and in extreme cases, damage caused by a cartilage piercing can lead to permanent disfigurement of the ear, such as cauliflower ear. Don’t let this scare you from this super cute piercing!
Moreover, why is my helix piercing throbbing?
As it’s only been a week and there’s two, that could explain the throbbing and the fact that it’s hot to touch. You may need to change the jewellery as the barbell could be to short resulting in it being sore, possibly infected, as the bacteria on the jewellery could be stuck within your ear.
Should I get a single or double helix piercing?
They say two is better than one, and it’s certainly true with the double helix piercing. The best part about the helix is that it offers a wide area for piercing. Because of this, you can opt for double helix piercings close to each other, far away, or anything in between.
Does a helix piercing hurt more than nose?
The helix wasn’t too much of a bother, it just took a LOT longer to heal than the nostril, and any time it got bumped it was a lot more painful.
