Is it o.k. to use a sewing needle or safety pin to pierce?
I cannot emphasize enough… NO! Sewing needles are for sewing and safety pins are for making clothes look groovy. Sterile, tri-bevel, hollow piercing needles are the only way to go. Needles, of course should be put in a sterile pack and sterilized in an autoclave and used one time only. NO SHARING! That’s so dangerous. Is it really worth getting hepatitis or HIV/AIDS? The metal of a sewing machine needle or a safety pin is also not very good to put in your skin. I have seen some pretty serious metal reactions and infections from using the wrong stuff.
