So as long as you’ve been extra careful with your new piercing, you can expect about a week of soreness, but if you experience lingering soreness longer than a week or so, you know where to go!
Also to know is, how bad does a rook piercing hurt?
The piercer will use a thicker needle to pierce the rook. You can experience sharp pain and pressure during and after the piercing. After the piercing, the intense pain turns into a throbbing pain, which lasts for a few days. You may have difficulty sleeping for the first few nights.
In respect to this, how long will my rook piercing be swollen? Rook piercings are prone to redness and swelling. In most cases this will fade after a few days and usually looks much worst than it is. If the piercing was done with a ring and the placement is correct with the right size it will lay comfortable against the ear.
Besides, does a rook piercing help with anything?
Just like other body piercings, most people get rook piercings primarily for body ornamentation. Practitioners of ear acupuncture (auriculotherapy), a form of alternative medicine, say that ear piercings have therapeutic benefits, and rook piercing can relieve stress.
