- Wash your head and ears before the procedure to prevent the risk of dust and dirt getting into the puncture site.
- Keep in mind that in the earlobe there are a lot of nerve receptors and reflex zones. If you choose the wrong place for a puncture, you can disrupt the normal functioning of one or another system of your body.

First of all, press a piece of ice to the lobe for a while. Wait until your ear starts to go numb from the cold. Disinfect the needle. How to do it? Pour a little alcohol into the saucer, lower the needle there and scorch the liquid. While it burns out by sterilizing the instrument, we wipe the place of the future puncture moistened with hydrogen peroxide with a cotton wool on both sides of the ear. Then we outline the green points on the lobe. This is necessary so that the holes are made on the same level. After that, take and pull the lobe to the side. Take a slightly cooled needle and with a quick but accurate movement we pierce the ear at the marked point. Necessarily at a right angle, and not crooked! Pull out the needle and insert the earring pretreated in alcohol. Once again wipe it with the same or with hydrogen peroxide already punctured lobe with the accessory put into it.
- Do not remove earrings from your ears for several months! It is just so much that the wound heals and protracts around its foreign body.

To prick or not to prick?
Another question related to the above procedure is related to the age at which the ear should be pierced by your child. Basically, young mothers try to do this early, because young children can tolerate pain more easily and calm down faster. Nevertheless, doctors are extremely advised not to
pierce the ears of children under three years of age. The fact is that cartilages located in this place during this period are still being formed and are directly connected with the tongue, teeth and facial muscles. In order not to harm your child, leave alone the nerve endings of his ears for up to three years.
