Nipple Rings

The nipples have enough flesh to safely insert nipple rings without the body rejecting the jewelry. However, it is important that piercing is done by a professional. There are innate risks in body piercing, especially nipple piercing. Complications include allergies and infections. Piercing also increases the possibility of nonpuerperal mastitis, which is the occurrence of inflamed lesions in the breast unrelated to breastfeeding. Excessive tugging of nipple rings may also lead to infections, even months after piercing.
