How do you tell when a piercing is migrating
If its a new piercing, ist because the swelling is going down. This is normal. I see this in the shop all the time.
You will notice this more & more in the first few weeks.
The 2 things u want to watch out for is Migration & Rejection.
Rejection.. is when ur body dosent want the piercing anymore, so it kills off the skin in front of the piercing, & pushes the piercing out. You will notice this, because u see the skin getting smaller & smaller in front of the piercing. It will look like the barbell is getting bigger, but its not. Dont wait untill it grows out, its best to determine if there is no infection, see a piercer, & take it out. After it heals over completely, u can try again & get it re pierced. Rejection is the enemy of navel piercings. It can be caused by playing with it too much, wearing dangely jewlery, getting it caught on things & wearing heavy jewlery.It also can be caused by changing ur jewlery early, wearing the wrong size, length or material, of jewlery.
Migration..is when the piercing decides to move around. Many piercing migrate a little bit, but noticable migration can be caused by the same things as rejection..(playing with it too much, wearing dangely jewlery, getting it caught on things & wearing heavy jewlery.It also can be caused by changing ur jewlery early, wearing the wrong size, length or material, of jewlery.)
*****Always go see a doctor, & ur piercer before u remove a piercing.*****
How do you tell when a piercing is migrating
u can acctualy feel a piericng migrate, u can see it thought, piercings r hard to take care of, & with alot of complication, if u suspect a rejection or migration, put in a bioplast barbell (its implant graded) with titanium beads, & if u u suspect an infection use 100% pure lavender oil twice ( not more ) a days for 7 to 14 days, for basic care ask in ur nearby pharmacy for LIQUID ''baxedin after ur shower (dont take bath or else u bathe in ur own dirt) take of the ''crusties'' gently with a q-tip, then fill a shooter glass with baxedin apply it on ur piercing for 5 minutes, then use ur CLEAN fingers put 3 drops of 100% pure lavender oil directly on ur piercing & massage it GENTLY for 2 minutes.
