Ear piercing is one of the most common types of piercings. The procedure came to us from ancient times, when it was not just a decoration, but a cult. So, before each puncture was made after hunting for a dead animal. Fortunately, today girls do not have to carry out any special rituals to get an earring in their ear.
Ear piercing, where to do?
Many girls, especially adolescents, make for themselves not one, but several holes in their ears. Moreover, this procedure is not done by a professional, but by a young lady herself or a very skilled friend. This happens for two reasons: firstly, parents may not allow it, and secondly, the desire to stand out from the company in which you want to be cool. Agree, piercing the ear is not so difficult. It would seem that he put a half of potatoes on the inside, poked a hole with a gypsy needle and you're done. But do not rejoice and immediately run to do it all. This activity is very dangerous. This process should be entrusted only to a specialist who knows exactly where to pierce the ear, while doing this so as not to harm health.
It is on the ear that there are many different endings that are responsible for specific organs in the body. Therefore, if you do not know their exact location, then you can significantly spoil your health. Ear piercing is usually done in the earlobe. But it is on it that there are points that are responsible for the health and work of the jaw, tongue, palate, and most importantly, the eye.
If you seek the help of a specialist, then ear piercing will be a painless and safe procedure for you. In salons today they use a special pneumatic gun to pierce various parts of the body. The earring of your choice is inserted into the device, then it is attached to the intended place, and a puncture is made directly. Its area is treated with hydrogen peroxide immediately after piercing and in the next few weeks. It is important to know that after piercing, you can’t wet your ear, and also visit public pools and ponds in order to protect yourself from the possibility of getting an infection.
To pierce or not to pierce the ears of children?
It is impossible to give an exact answer. Some doctors claim that because of the existing points, it is better to never touch your ears at all, so as not to provoke any diseases. Other experts claim that ear piercing can only provoke diseases that were already in the body or hereditary. Nevertheless, many simply do not want to listen to the advice of doctors and pierce their ears anyway. Make your own choices . For example, from the point of view that a child under the age of one and a half years quickly forgets pain, the procedure can be carried out precisely in this period. Doctors say that the time for piercing is better - from 3 years to 10. Many experts warn that after 11 years the punctured canal is very difficult to heal.
Ear piercing for weight loss
