You could take pliers and bend the piercing (much like a standard cartilage or nose ring), but if you’re like me, it’s incredibly painful to do so. I‘ve tried it. If you can bend the ring enough, you can thread the daith piercing out of the hole. I suggest getting it done.
Similarly, should I take out my infected Daith piercing?
If you suspect an infection, you should not remove the jewelry. Removing the jewelry will often cause the piercing site to close up, making it impossible to reinsert jewelry at that site. If treated promptly, most infections will clear up quickly.
Beside above, why do I have a bump on my Daith piercing?
Unfortunately, bumps are relatively common with cartilage piercings. They can form soon after your initial piercing or long after it’s truly healed. If you still have a bump after the initial swelling subsides, it may be: a pustule, which is a blister or pimple that contains pus.
How do you know if your Daith piercing is rejecting?
Symptoms of piercing rejection
- more of the jewelry becoming visible on the outside of the piercing.
- the piercing remaining sore, red, irritated, or dry after the first few days.
- the jewelry becoming visible under the skin.
- the piercing hole appearing to be getting larger.
- the jewelry looking like it is hanging differently.
How often should I clean my Daith piercing?
Like other cartilage piercings, it’s particularly prone to infection. However, taking good care of your new daith piercing can help ensure it heals properly. Clean it twice a day with saline solution, and don’t touch the area except when you’re cleaning it. Healing can take 6 months.
Can you sleep on a Daith piercing?
“We don’t encourage sleeping on new piercings until they’ve fully healed, but unlike some of the outer-ear piercings, most people can sleep on a daith piercing within a couple of months.” You likely won’t feel sore throughout the entire healing time, but it’s still important to take care of it and maintain cleanliness.
