    Just wondering, after you get your nipple(s) pierced, is it very sore/uncomfortable to wear a bra afterwards? If it is, how long before you can wear a bra again?

    Not too sure about the whole bra thing as I dont have breasts.....yet but nipple piercings can take up to a year and a half to heal so be warned!

    Seriously though mine took almost 9-12 months to heal fully.

    i got mine done had a bandage on it for the first day it was fine after it didnt rub too much just becareful of bras with inside pocket things.. my bar got stuck in the slit a few times...

    i wore a bra straight after i got mine done,everything is going to rub off it,the bra minimises that...
    takes fooooorever to heal though.
    and then mine got ripped to pieces,damn drunken rugby tackles...

    I had no problem with a bra...got a bandage over it after it was pierced and took it off when i got home.I've been lucky never to have trouble with it...occasionally the ring will flip up, depending on movement, but mine healed relatively quickly...
    Be warned though,. i have known people who've had trouble with it, it's gotten very crusty for some people i know and almost, ripped at one side, from pressure!!

    I cant say about Bra's but I have mine 7months now and they have still not healed (both done at the sametime)

    I also got Strep throat, 3 weeks ago. Which caused my piercings to get infected from a lowered immune. While I was on the antibiotic's it went away. But has come back now that I am off them again. (they are still getting cleaned every day.) but the infection came back again. So be warned, they can be hassel... but are damn well worth it. Once I have some monies, I will be going back to the doctor to see if he can help and maybe perscribe me more of the antibiotic's.

    I've never healed any of my piercings with anything but, salt and water soaks regularly! that's what i find best and they have to be regularly!!there's no point healing a piercing half asses, or it will never heal properly!Now, I don't know will, this work for actually healing piercings, but i recently got zinc CREAM...not tablets, for an irratated surface piercing, it was recommended to me about over a year ago by paddy o'd from bodyshock, but the pirecing was alright again ,but started to act up recently..anyway, it's brilliant!zinc is known to have really good healing properties anyway...dunno the name, cos it's in my bathroom and someones in the shower so i can't check, but i got in a chemist for 7euro, it's a white round container....but it might be worth having a go, if nothing else is working..oh i should say..i find it works best...after cleaning the piercing..and then applying it!!!
