Cartilage Piercing
Due to the nature of ear cartilage, extra care should be
observed during the healing period. Minor pain and redness may
occur immediately - this is normal and should settle within 48
hours if proper aftercare is carried out. If undue pain, swelling
or redness occurs at any time, seek medical advice immediately,
before removing the ear-piercing stud. Failure to properly follow
aftercare procedures or to seek immediate medical advice should a
problem occur may result in permanent scarring to the ear
cartilage.
