Here are some precautions for your reference.

Almost every woman has wanted to wear small and lovely round earrings one day since she was a child. Be sure to wear the same specific earring 3 months after the ear hole is pierced, so as not to compound the ear hole.

The most important thing to do for the first time is how to avoid any sequelae. The sequelae of ear holes include wound ulceration, allergic macula, suppuration and so on. Many headphones seen on the market now are made in Europe and America. In America, most people get their ears pierced in their early childhood. In order to match children's small ears, they wear thin and short headphones. But in the East, people usually have their ears pierced after they are fifteen or sixteen, and their earlobes are much thicker. If the child wears headphones to make ear holes, the holes are too small and the ear nail hooks are too thick, which is easy to fester.

Please don't worry. . .

In addition, many people think that it is enough to wear 18K gold earrings after pierced ears. However, even a stable metal like gold can cause a slight metal allergy. Therefore, it is necessary to accept the metal allergy test in advance and choose the metal that suits your physique. There is a kind of "titanium" metal, which will not release ions at all, so people who are allergic to metal can choose to wear earrings made of pure titanium, ceramics or plastics.

Furthermore, don't sterilize all the time after puncture. Just do it once a day. Apply disinfectant to the cotton swab and rub it on the earring needle and earring head. As long as you keep it clean, there will be no problem. Of course, once it gets worse, you should see a dermatologist immediately. If you want to wear beautiful earrings for a long time, initial maintenance is the most important!

Ear holes are exquisite.

Not "as long as I like it, why not". Anyone who has studied Chinese medicine knows that there are many acupuncture points in the human body and "eye points" in the earlobe. In the past, some people's vision decreased after having their ears pierced, and some people's vision increased greatly, which was caused by stimulating eye points. If a female friend really wants to get her ears pierced, the lower part in the middle of the earlobe is more suitable. If she is not sure about the location, when she is worried, she can use a special acupuncture probe to find out the real location of the eye point. After finding the eye point, should she get her ears pierced here or avoid it? Doctors suggest that it is best to avoid this point, because stimulating this point for a long time may cause tension and fatigue, which is contrary to the orthodox acupuncture method in China.

According to the Associated Press, in early February, four teenage boys in the United States were forced to have their ears removed because of perforation and wound infection in their upper ears, but they could not recover after receiving antibiotic treatment and had to undergo surgery. These young people all got their ears pierced in jewelry stores.

Dr Joseph Ross is an authority in the field of juvenile plastic surgery. When he mentioned this, he regretted: "In fact, not only the United States and Britain, but also many countries have had cases of infection due to ear piercing, and boys are often more seriously ill than girls. Boys prefer to have their ears pierced in the upper part of their ears to show off who wears more. And they don't pay attention to wound care and hygiene. "

Piercing the upper part of the ear is very painful.

Piercing ears and wearing earrings have been popular for a long time. Why is there such a serious ear infection in recent years? The reporter interviewed Ms. Kate of Georgia Plastic Surgery Association.

Ms. Kate explained that ear piercing will definitely lead to wounds and infections, which can generally be treated with antibiotics. However, because the external ear is mainly composed of cartilage, the blood circulation of the external ear is the least in the whole head organ, so it is difficult to get effective treatment with antibiotics. The blood circulation of the soft tissue in the upper ear is much worse than that of the earlobe, so the probability of bacterial infection after puncture is much greater than that of the earlobe.

Once the ear infection expands, develops into suppurative periostitis and even leads to auricle necrosis, it must rely on surgery.

In fact, Ms. Kate said that piercing the upper ear is much more painful than piercing the earlobe. It's really not worth it to endure pain and pursue fashion and risk serious infection.

You should go to a professional hospital to get your ears pierced.

American epidemiologist Keane advises young people who are eager to be unconventional: If you have to pierce the upper part of your ear, you must first understand the danger of doing so, and you must pay attention to keeping the perforated part hygienic.

Ms. Kate told reporters: No matter which part of the ear is pierced, it should actually be a "very particular" thing. Be sure to go to a professional plastic surgery hospital for surgery.

Small shops are cheap and time-saving, but there is no health protection. On the one hand, shop assistants are not professionals, and their skills are mixed. On the other hand, the operating tools are not clean, and the spray gun or needle used for ear piercing will become the carrier of infectious diseases if it is not disinfected thoroughly. This serious infection in the United States is because the bottle of disinfectant used to disinfect jewelry in jewelry stores is infected with bacteria.

In addition, before the ear hole is punctured and the wound has not healed, it is best to apply anti-inflammatory drugs every day to reduce infection.
