Why is gun shot nose piercing dangerous?
Nose piercing should always be done from a professional nose piercer. The person usually uses a ring or a stud and pierces the nose with the needle, which is sterilized. This is the safest way of piercing the nose and is less likely to get infected. Nowadays, many people go in for gun shot piercing because it is cheap, but this method of piercing is not completely safe and can lead to a variety of problems. Our nose, unlike our ear lobes are made of thick tissues. If the gun piercing studs are not very sharp, there are chances of scarring on the skin. Also, as these guns are not sterilized, there is a risk of getting infected by diseases like hepatitis, HIV, etc. Moreover, the stud of a gun piercing is usually very tight leaving no room space for cleaning and healing, leading to severe complications.
