You’ve made the decision to get ears pierced. But the question is, can you swim after getting your ears pierced? \u00a0If you are not wearing protective ear gear, your piercing will most likely heal.<\/p>\n
However, depending on what you were pierced with, the ear can be susceptible to infections because of the position of the ear. The decision is up to you with whether or not you want to swim after getting your ears pierced. Here I will explore whether or not you can swim after you get your ears pierced<\/strong>.<\/p>\n If you were wondering if you can swim after getting your ears pierced, you might want to ask your doctor. The answer is yes, but it depends on the type of earrings you’re wearing. To swim safely, the earrings need to be in the ear for at least three months. And if you\u2019re looking for earrings with a back<\/a>, these will be better suited for swimming than ones with a front entry.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Table of Contents<\/p> Earrings can be a big commitment, but that doesn’t mean you can’t wear them if you want to keep your ears pierced. However, it is important to not get your ears pierced and then jump on a pool for some swimming. You should wait about a week after getting your ears pierced before you swim. This will ensure that your ears are healed and your ears don’t get infected. After a week, if you are still interested in swimming, you can go ahead and start swimming again.<\/p>\n If you have just gotten your ears pierced, you may be wondering how long you should wait before swimming. The answer is that it depends on what kind of earrings you have. If you have felt-in stud earrings, you should be able to swim at least an hour after getting them. If you have daith piercings, you should wait two hours. If you have studs with a ball on the back, you should wait until the ball has had time to heal.<\/p>\n After swimming, it is important to take a shower and ensure that you dry your body before putting a piece of cotton or Piercing Aftercare cleansing swabs on the area.
