Avatar n tn Hi there, Just like with any type of body piercing, there are potential risks when getting a belly ring. A navel ring piercing can lead to infection if not properly cared for and potentially serious blood poisoning. It may also cause some scarring and potential nerve damage. Failing to properly sterilize the piercing equipment used, failing to clean and sterilize the wound , and failing to use proper piercing techniques are all causes of increased risk factors when getting your belly piercing.

Avatar n tn The process of piercing would put someone at risk if the piercing instrument was contaminated with HIV infected blood, just as contaminated needles risk HIV transmission occupationally for health care workers or among injection drug users. But simply having a pierced tongue, navel, or nipple doesn't mean the instruments used in piercing were contaminated. If everybody with a body piercing were at increased risk for HIV, then that would apply to amost every woman.

Avatar m tn The girl was 22 years old from Poland. She had one tongue piercing which went right through her tongue and one lips piercing. She gave me fellatio for some 3-5 minutes and then she did vigorous handjob and then fellatio again. She then did handjob again until I ejaculated. I removed the condom and could see the semen inside. However I am worried since she had piercings and this could have made holes in the condom and let viruses through.
