I had my scaffolding piercing 2 days ago, but I was just wondering how long it will take for the swelling to go down? I know because it's a double cartilage piercing, it is likely to take longer to heal and such, but I was just wondering if there was an average time before it goes back to normal?
Scaffold piercing is comparable to an commercial piercing...the term varies in distinctive international locations. in any case, how long it rather is swollen for rather varies from guy or woman to guy or woman. i might say i observed the swelling being thoroughly down after approximately 2 weeks. Ice it, take ibuprofen, and ensure you're actually not dozing on it or putting stress on it by potential of like using your telephone on that area.
Mine took about a week, but only the first 4/5 days were really bad. Taking something with ibuprofen or anything meant for swelling or an anti-inflammatory should help :) Don't try ice though, that just made it worse for mine.
