Flight Pressure & New Piercings: What You Need to Know

In addition to the summer do's and don'ts for piercings, it's important to consider how flight pressure can impact new piercings when traveling by air. Changes in air pressure during flights can potentially affect piercings, especially if they are still in the healing process. Here are some important tips to keep in mind when flying with a new piercing:


Flight Pressure and Piercing Healing:

1. Increased Sensitivity:
Fresh piercings may be more sensitive to changes in air pressure, particularly during takeoff and landing when the pressure in the cabin changes rapidly. This can cause discomfort or pain in the pierced area.

2. Swelling:
Changes in air pressure can also contribute to temporary swelling in and around the piercing site. This swelling can be uncomfortable and may affect the healing process of the piercing.


Tips for Flying with a New Piercing:

1. Plan Ahead:
If possible, try to schedule your flight after the initial healing period for your piercing. This will give your piercing some time to stabilize and reduce the likelihood of complications during the flight.
2. Consult Your Piercer:
Before your flight, consider consulting with your piercer about flying with a new piercing. They can provide personalized advice based on the type of piercing and its current healing stage.
3. Be Mindful of Discomfort:
If you experience discomfort or pain in your piercing during the flight, try to avoid touching or adjusting the piercing. Gently moving your jaw or swallowing can help equalize the pressure in your ears and may alleviate some discomfort.
4. Stay Hydrated:
Air travel can be dehydrating, which can impact the healing of your piercing. Make sure to drink plenty of water before, during, and after your flight to keep your body hydrated.
5. Avoid Touching Your Piercing: 
Airports and airplanes are filled with bacteria, so it's essential to avoid touching your piercing with unwashed hands to prevent infection. If you need to clean your piercing during the flight, use a sterile saline solution and wash your hands thoroughly beforehand.
By following these tips and being mindful of how flight pressure can affect new piercings, you can help ensure a smooth and comfortable travel experience while taking care of your piercing. Remember to prioritize your piercing's health and well-being, especially during the crucial healing period. Safe travels!

    If you’re not familiar with cryptocurrency trading, I strongly advise you to either stay away from it completely or invest very cautiously. I was forced to invest a significant amount of my life savings on a forex platform to increase my profits, but I ultimately lost roughly 95,000 USD to this investment scam. I was not allowed to take my money out after I had invested and made a profit. I sent a letter to customer service, but it was ineffective, so I realized I had been duped. I was fortunate enough to come across a genuine deal retrieval WEB WIZARD after much looking for ways to acquire assistance. I decided to give it a shot and explained my condition to them. they gave me their word that they would help me get my money back. Honestly, they performed a fantastic job, and my money was recovered in my wallet in less than 24 hours without any upfront payment. I appreciate having encountered WEB WIZARD with such exceptional abilities, it’s truly remarkable.
