How many piercings do you have? Have you taken any out? Which is your favourite? Where do you have piercings?
I currently have eleven piercings. I have three in my left ear lobe, one in my left cartilage, two in my right ear lobe, my right tragus, right rook, nostril, navel and tongue web. And I used to have my lip pierced but had to take it out. My favourite piercing is probably my nose or my navel. I'd wanted both done for a long time, but my mother never let me have either done. I'd wanted my navel pierced for about seven years before I got it done; I got it a month after moving out my parents' house when I went to university! I'd also wanted my nose pierced for a long time, and I'm glad I got it as I love it, and it quite suits me.

I dont' have many piercings. I got my ears pierced, just once, when I was 5. Then a few months ago, my little sister thought it would be fun if we both got our noses pierced. So we did. Mine has been bothering me a lot. The guy who did it told me not to wash it with anything but soap. But it still get's crusty and hurts sometimes. So I don't know what to do with it!

Don't clean it with soap! You should make up some saline solution (1/4tsp salt to a whole mug of boiling water) let it cool then soak your piercing. Use tissue or something. Then make sure to rinse it off with water otherwise the salt can dry the piercing out. Good luck!

Thank you so much!!! I am pretty adament about cleaning my piercings and my tattoos, and I've had great luck til I got this nose ring. It's been enflamed and red for a while and I just keep cleaning it (with soap) the best I can. I will definately try the saline. Now I'm mad at that guy for telling me that!!!

I have my ears done twice, one "down below" and had a second "down below" one but took the ring out too soon and couldnt get another one back in so I'm getting that done again LOL and had my belly done twice but the first time it got infected and the second time my body rejected it, getting it done one last time and hopefully it will go well...I'm also eventually getting my eyebrow done, possibly my lip and my n!pples

i got 9 right now.. but i've been pierced 16 times already. had a nose ring once and couldn't keep it since i act in independent films. once i had to play a nun and it was weird seeing a little hole on the side of my nose that looked like a mole.
it's real fun... for me, its better than getting a tattoo, at least you can get rid of it when you want to ;)

I have for piercings, two in the bottom of each either. Just normal earring holes no stretching or anything. I don't currently have any earrings in but none of my holes have closed up. I don't have a favourite really, I would probably say my conventional first piercing though.

At the moment I have 6 piercings.
1 Labret
1 Septum
2 earlobes
1 Rook
1 nipple
But among some things that I have had and have taken out are: the other nipple piercing, belly button, conch, and industrial twice. This is the 2nd time I've had my lip pierced, too. (The first time I lost the post and it closed up.)
Was contemplating getting something new soon. :)
