A member asked:
Put in earring after not wearing any for 10 years. there was no blood or pain. is it possible for my piercing to not have closed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That's possible.: If you previously wore earrings long enough for the initial piercings to have scarred up and healed, they could have become permanent.
