Summer is here and that means it's time to hit the beach, go for a swim, and enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities. But if you have a new piercing, it's important to take some precautions to ensure that it heals properly and doesn't get infected. Here are some tips for caring for your piercing during the summer months.
Don't submerge yourself in any body of water. This includes pools, hot tubs, oceans, lakes, and any other body of water where you have to fully immerse yourself. The water may contain bacteria or other contaminants that could get into your piercing and cause an infection. If you do end up in the water accidentally, be sure to rinse out your piercing and clean it with saline solution as soon as possible.
Avoid using sunblock or other lotions and potions on your piercing. These products may contain harsh chemicals that could irritate your piercing or slow down the healing process. If you do need to use sun protection, apply it carefully and avoid getting it directly on your piercing.
Be cautious of summertime sports. If you're playing a sport that involves a lot of physical contact, like football or basketball, there's a risk that your piercing could get bumped or knocked around. This could cause swelling, discomfort, or even an infection. If you do participate in sports, be sure to protect your piercing by wearing a protective band or other protective gear.
Keep your piercing clean. No matter what you're doing during the summer, it's important to keep your piercing clean to prevent infection. Wash your hands before touching your piercing, and clean it twice a day with saline solution. This will help to keep it free of bacteria and other contaminants.
By following these simple precautions, you can ensure that your piercing stays healthy and looks great all summer long. Just be sure to be careful and use common sense, and your piercing will heal quickly and without any problems.
