Help docs! could it hurt to get your ears pierced?

Always risk: There is always risks with any procedure. The common ones would be pain and bleeding , infection, not centered puncture. If you are not piercing the lobe but the cartilage areas be very careful because an infection in tht area is difficult to treat.
