piercing complications

Is clitoral piercing dangerous?

[Confused76]

Keeping any piercing clean and infection free is hard enough, let alone in an area with so many natural secretions.  I have my belly pierced and even with the utmost care, it got infected and took forever to heal.

Speaking of piercings bleeding, my sister got her tongue pierced.  It hit a vein or tore it later that day and she was bleeding from the mouth for hours.  She was spitting out blood and eventually had to take it out.  She has plenty of piercings (many ear piercings, belly) and would never pierce anywhere that there would be a chance of bleeding like that again.

I'd think it over and really research the risk.

I have heard that if they do it wrong they could numb your clit for life.

it is dangerouse mainly because you have veins that pass through
your vargina and clit. if one gets peirced accidental you could bleed to death. it also can get seriously infected. which can lead to seriouse complications.

Ah-ha!  Good Job Confused76!  "Piercing a clitoris that is too small could result in serious nerve damage as a result of improper placement."
