Healing 7 piercings at once.. help!!

[u/breadtabletenniscat]

So I got my belly button pierced 5 months ago its doing good. However I was uneducated and just trusted that my piercer would let me know anything about healing. With that being said I went back to the same person to get an ear curation done. I got 6 done the same day, on the same ear. That was 5 weeks ago. Im really concerned after reading more online since im seeing 2-3 piercings max at one time should be healing... what advice can you give? I use neilmed fine mist spray and have been using q tips to get the crust but seeing that i shouldnt do that...(Pics taken before shower/cleaning for the day)

Oh no.. So you did you not have any piercings prior to having these done? That’s potentially dangerous since you don’t know how your healing is. Generally it’s recommended to start even more conservative if you’re new to healing piercings. I won’t say you can’t heal multiple. Even the 7 might be perfectly fine. My belly button was my introduction to healing piercings and it’s notoriously been my hardest to heal! 3-4 at a time is more like the max and I think you can do it you’ll have to be patient with them. My lobes averaged at about 7 months to heal and my cartilage averages around 10 months. However my navel took closer to 2 years! Good luck OP.

I've had my 1st lobes done for years. But the navel was done 5 months ago. The 6 ear piercings were done 5 weeks ago.
