I had been writing about ear helix piercing for a long time but decided to wait until my second piercing was completely healed without a bit of pain or redness. First of all, let me tell you that ear piercing is not for everyone because the healing process is long and sometimes excruciatingly painful. Think long and hard before doing this procedure, because you will have to put up with it for a long time when you feel uncomfortable.
Helix Piercing
When it comes to ear helix piercing, the best way to go is with a sterilized needle made especially for the ear. This type of needle shortens the treatment time to a few months and the chances of breaking a helix-like piercing weapon are very low. I got both of my gun piercings out and paid a heavy price for it, not because I didn't pay attention to my treatment process.
After getting your piercing, clean it twice a day with an inserted ear solution and literature on piercing and care. If you prefer cotton swabs, you can also use rubbing alcohol, which is sometimes good for cleaning and reducing redness. You should also twist the earring after each cleaning, which will help loosen the hole and prevent a crust from forming around the earring hole.
Stop Unnecessary Touching
Avoid unnecessary touching, as this can significantly increase pain. Try not to fall asleep while sleeping and press on the pierced ear, it will hurt, fade, hurt, and turn red. Also, keep your hair away from the earrings while it heals, as this will cause your hair to get tangled between your ears and the earrings, and will hurt when you remove it; otherwise, it can lead to infection.
My Experience and Opinions
This is my experience and the thoughts I have shared with you. If this seems too strong for you and you can tolerate the pain, you can try alternative ways of blowing your ears; ear cuffs or magnets for ears that do not need piercing. Either way, no matter what decision you make, make sure it's what you want and sacrifice to hang on, happy piercing!
