A doctor has provided 1 answer
Advice from one link: "Pools with chlorine or sea water filled with impurities may react with your piercing to cause an infection. If you really have to go swimming, do not go for at least three weeks and try using a waterproof bandage. Keep an eye on it when you're in the pool/sea to make sure it doesn't fall off."
