Tragus reference

Tragus Piercing refers to perforation in the tragus that actually
appears in front of an ear canal. The perforation is used for wearing
various kinds of jewelry. Piercing is done by the use of a small gauge
hollow piercing needle where jewelry in shape of a ring is inserted.!!
Do’s
- The moment you get your tragus pierced it needs to be cleansed
by the use of a saline solution. This actually acts as an agent which
minimizes the intensity of pain to a considerable level. It would be
wise to consult the piercer regarding the type of saline solution which
would suit you, rather than going for any predetermined brand.
- Follow the piercing with cleansing of the tragus for at least twice
or thrice every day. This facilitates reduction of the intensity of pain
over the next few days.
- Make sure you use one cotton ball which has been soaked inside a
disinfectant to be used as a cleaning material around the pierced area.
- It is also recommended or important to clean your hands with any
antibacterial solution while changing your earrings. Maintenance of high
level of hygiene is very important indeed.
Don'ts
- One should avoid playing around the pierced area or with the
tragus jewelry. Even though there might be some irritation, it is
recommended to leave it untouched for at least 5-7 days or till the day
it gets healed.
- It must be said that tragus is one of the most vulnerable areas
where infection might occur. So protect it as much as possible by not
letting anyone touch the area.
- One of the critical things to avoid would be experimenting with different jewelry till pain is reduced.

Getting your Tragus Pierced(very important)
Before you get your tragus pierced, ensure that you are aware and
confident enough about the piercer who is going to pierce your tragus.
It is not something which everybody can do and requires experience. An
experienced pierce would hollow using a low gauged needle which would
pierce in a straight or a curved manner. This is completely dependent
upon the piercer. The best part is that the entire process of Tragus
Piercing is not that painful as there are very few nerve endings around
the area.
Tragus Piercing Pain
Coming in fashion in the recent times, Tragus piercing involves
wearing fancy jewelry on tragus. Tragus Piercing pain mostly occurs
while piercing is done. It is entirely on the tolerance level of the
individual which determines the level of pain and its impact. The pain
could be prevalent over the next few days but a good aftercare can make
the entire process much bearable.
Tragus Piercing Infection(in case you get infected)

Piercing of any kind has the possibility of getting infected. The
only reason for this is improper aftercare or even getting the piercing
done from an inexperienced piercer. Although pain as well as swelling
are pretty common in the
initial days, you might need to worry if it
does not subside after about 7 days. During the process of piercing the
tragus bleeds and has a tendency to bleed after a few hours. It would be
a wise idea to consult a doctor when something unnatural occurs. This
m
ay include redness or soreness in and around the pierced area. On some
occasions the area might turn yellow or even green in color. Many people
have complained about a foul smell coming out of the pierced area which
is a cause of concern as well.
While many would panic once they observe these infection or
situations, it is recommended to be calm and consult a specialist. Also,
do not remove the jewelry yourself as this might result in the hole
area closed and trapping the infection within. This would certainly
result in more problems and pain.
Tragus Piercing Aftercare

Aftercare is among the most vital things in any of the piercings
which people may undergo. Similarly, it would again be recommended to
follow the steps mentioned above i.e. clean, clear and makes sure of not
touching the pierced area or even the jewelry.
- Clean the area with saline water solution by the use of cotton
for at least twice every day. While doing so one should ensure that the
area behind the tragus is also cleaned with the solution. This will
ensure that the solution reaches deep inside the hole. While cleaning
the area you should rotate your jewelry very slowly and softly while
avoiding any direct touch of the hands.
- Don't touch the area at all. Leave the area untouched and clear as
tragus has a big problem of being infected in a situation when it comes
within contact of bacteria or germs.
- Avoid answering phone calls from the pierced ear, sleep over the
pierced ear, etc. Any kind of injury in the pierced area might displace
the jewelry.
- There are instances where the body rejects or pushes the jewelry so proper care of cleaning should always be ensured.
- Changing the pillow covers daily and washing hands with an
antibacterial soap on a regular basis could be the other aftercare
recommendations.
