OT kinda but am wondering if anyone here has any piercings,other than ears and if so,
have you had any problems with healing or infections due to the sweat factor of being in the gym all the time?

have lots of friends with em' and they never said anything about it. but in general for piercings and tatts, if its not healed in the right amount of time, it could be infected. have a doc check it out.

Yes (bellybutton) and gym/sweat hasn't caused any problems for me. I've had it for a long time though, so it has been healed for years. Is your piercing recent? I would just be sure to keep it clean with Bactine if you are having problems.

Re: OT kinda but am wondering if anyone here has any piercings,other than ears and if so,
Your body produce antibodies against bacteria in your own fluids, so getting your own sweat or saliva in a piercing will have no effect. Although I'd imagine getting alot of sweat in a freshly done piercing might sting like hell..

Re: OT kinda but am wondering if anyone here has any piercings,other than ears and if so,
I have not had anything pierced as of yet because I AM concerned about the sweat factor..due to the fact that I am a personal trainer and spend most of my days in the gym(i do cardio with the majority of my clients so I tend to stay extremely sweaty for several hrs out of the day)anyway.I was considering having my nipples pierced but because of the location and the concern of sweaty clothing laying against my skin, I have been too chicken to have it done yet..was just wondering if anyone here had any experience with this type of thing and if so any suggestions.

Re: OT kinda but am wondering if anyone here has any piercings,other than ears and if so,
I have 2 piercings myself besides one in each ear. I kept them really clean. With sweat in the gym you may want to use bactine spray after a workout and for crying out loud do NOT touch it during a workout. I see girls with like nasty *** navel piercings and they play with it in the mirror and it's all red. EW.
