What to Expect. There’s no way around it — nipple piercings generally do hurt. Not exactly shocking seeing as how you’re literally piercing a hole through a body part packed with nerve endings. That said, it doesn’t hurt a ton for everyone, and there are certain things that can make it hurt more or less.
Thereof, how long after getting your nipples pierced Can you play with them?
In this manner, are my nipples suitable for piercing?
The nipple is fleshy enough to be pierced securely behind plenty of skin to prevent rejection. That doesn’t mean a nipple piercing can’t reject jewelry, though, especially if it’s not done properly in the first place. If the jewelry gauge is too thin or the piercing isn’t deep enough, you run the risk of rejection.
Should I pick the crust off my piercing?
After the first few days your body will excrete lymph as it begins to form the fistula inside your piercing. This lymph ‘crust‘ will likely collect on the jewelry or around the piercing. Do not pick at it. Piercings do tend to swell slightly — some more than others — during healing.
