Do I have to spin the jewellery to heal it?
Many of us have been told to keep spinning the jewellery during the healing stage. The reason for doing this was to prevent the jewellery (cheap ear studs) from adhering to our bodies. Rotating the jewellery isn’t recommended as the jewellery most commonly used for body piercings do not grow to our skin. Constantly spinning your jewellery during the day will irritate it more and tear skin cells that are trying to heal on the inside of the piercing. By touching your jewellery you may also be at risk of spinning crusties, dirt, and germs into the fresh piercing. Leaving the jewellery alone during the healing stage is definitely recommended.
