is healing easier with one long bar or two short bars?i ask this because mine was pierced with one long ptfe bar in july last year and i've had nothing but pain, lumps, crust and blood for the last ten months. would it help to change to two small bars or is it too late for me? :)
It really shouldn't matter whether you use a long bar or two short bars. Although I would switch to surgical steel, it seems to work best with sensitive piercings. Perhaps you aren't caring for it correctly? Depending on where exactly your piercing is you should clean it between 2 and 6 times a day. Also what kind of cleaner do you use? If you prefer a commercial brand H2Ocean is the best I've ever used. If you don't want to spend you money you can look for a recipe for a sea salt solution (the homemade equivalent of H2Ocean). Sometimes your body just doesn't like the piercing though. I've had a few rejected. You should go to a local piercing shop and ask their advice. Even if you didn't get pierced there, they'll surely try to help you out.
it is supposed to be healed with two rings. but a lot of piercers dont do this, i had mine pierced and the jewelry used for it to heal was a long barbell. how are you cleaning it?
