Dimple piercing diary entry #3 Infected where?!??
First off, I promised myself that I would document every thing that happens concerning my dimple piercings (even if its VERY unladylike) so please excuse everything I am about to say. (this may not be for readers with weak stomachs- though it's not too bad). YOU ARE WARNED.....
I woke up this morning with an awful taste in my mouth (It was like something crawled in my mouth and died TWO YEARS AGO!) I am very hygienic and take very good care of my teeth, I take pride in saying I brush three times daily. So when I brushed my teeth and started spitting I noticed that my spit was BLACK. Then it hit me! OH MY GOSH, I haven't been cleaning the inside of my mouth! I'm soo stupid!
long story short:
I gargled with warm salt water on the inside of my piercings (I held the water with my cheeks for five minutes)
and did the same with chamomile tea.
so to those of you who are (or thinking) about sharing my adventure with these piercings keep this in mind (though I know that most of you are probably not as stupid as me)
These piercings are not only temperamental but you must understand that they count as four piercings
2 facial (outside of cheeks) and
2 oral (in mouth)
you follow?
"so as the night the day" you must understand that you need to clean the inside as well as out unless you want to have a nasty infection.
Remember, Piercing pals, that Salt water is YOUR BEST FRIEND. Be loyal and loving to your salt water regime and happy healthy piercings will follow =)
Sincerely yours,
Susanne Dey
P.S. If you do happen to have an infection in your mouth,
(symptoms being nasty taste discoloured spit/lymph and the feeling of tenderness you might also notice a ring of discolouration near your flat backs)
refrain from eating anything spicy, diary or any kind of carbohydrate liquid (coke, rockstar, flavoured water etc.)
