Migrated Nipple Piercing.

irishmonkey

I got my right nipple pierced in Jan of this year in Metal Morphosis.
The girl was really nice, and it wasn't as painful as i had initially anticipated.

It stopped bleeding after a week, but for months after it had never healed properly. Even up to last month there was still lymph on the jewellery constantly.

Anyway, about a week (maybe two by this stage) i noticed that i could start to see the ring through the skin of the nipple. Throughout the week it became more and more obvious.

Sunday being my only day off, i headed into town knowing that metal morphosis was most likely closed.

I went to Celestal Ring instead.
I spoke to a lovely English girl, really nice, and obviously very passionate and knowing about her line of work.
She took one look and knew straight away that it had to be removed.
She gave me excellent advice about care, and said that i could most likely get it pierced again in about a year if it heals well.


What really confuses me is that the piercing migrated after almost a year.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Nipple piercings can take a long time to heal properly, but ya did right getting it whipped out at the first sign of migration. Hope it heals up for you and you're able to get it re-done!

i suspect it was pierced too shallow or possibly pierced at 2.4mm instead of 1.6mm.
your nipple shouldnt bleed for so long either. 3 - 4 days max.

to answer your question has anyone else experienced this as i said drunkenly yeah i have. i got my nipple pierced at 2.4mm when i was 18. They never really healed even after 3 years. In a club some d!ck gave me the most unmerciful nipple cripple which really put em under stress and over the edge.

they were migrating. took it out over the summer. got my left nipple repierced last week at 1.6mm by Mark in Inkwell. Way more pleasant experience, alas cant repierce my right one because theres too much scar tissue.
