How to Care for Your New Nipple Piercings

You've finally taken the plunge and gotten those long-awaited nipple piercings. Congratulations! Nipple piercings can add a bit of spice to your life, both in and out of the bedroom.

But now that you have them, it's important to know how to take care of them properly so that they heal quickly and without complications. Here are a few tips on how to care for your new nipple piercings.

1. Clean your piercings twice a day with a mild soap and warm water. Use a clean cotton ball or Q-tip to gently remove any crusties that have formed around the piercing. Be sure to dry the area well afterwards.

2. Apply a thin layer of PierceCare ointment to the piercing(s) 3-5 times per day. This will help to keep the piercing(s) moist and prevent them from drying out and getting infected.

3. Avoid touching your piercings with dirty hands. If you must touch them, be sure to wash your hands thoroughly first.

4. Sleep on your back or wear a loose fitting tank top or sports bra to bed so that your piercings don't get caught on anything and ripped out. Ouch!

5. Abstain from sexual activity until the piercing(s) has/have completely healed (usually 4-6 weeks).

6. Avoid using harsh chemicals, lotions, or perfumes near your piercing(s), as these can cause irritation.

7 . If you experience any redness, swelling, discharge, or pain that lasts longer than a few days, please see your doctor or contact reputable tattoo & piercing shops as soon as possible as this could be signs of an infection.

But, how long until you can swim with nipple piercings?

Nipple piercings are a great way to show off your unique sense of style, but you might be wondering how long you have to wait before you can go swimming with them. The answer depends on a few factors, including the type of jewelry you're using and how well your piercing is healing.

Generally speaking, it's best to wait at least six weeks before swimming with nipple piercings. This gives your body enough time to heal and reduces the risk of infection.

However, if you're using gold or titanium jewelry, you may be able to swim sooner. With proper care, you can enjoy your new piercings for years to come.
