Can I use ear piercing solution to cleanse my naval piercing?

Answer 1

NO DONT EVER USE SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!! BECUZ IT HAS ACHOLE IN IT AND THAT DESTROYS YOUR TISSUE!

USE H20 OCEAN ITS THE BEST!! OR USE A SALT LIKE SOLUTION..WHICH IS H20! BUT DONT USE ANYTHING THAT U WOULD CLEAN A SCAR WITH THATS DANGEROUSE!!

What To Avoid
Don't use alcohol, peroxide, Betadine or Hibiclens as they are overly strong and drying which can hinder healing.

Don't apply any ointment such as Bacitracin, Neosporin or any triple antibiotic ointment on your piercing. These prevent oxygen from reaching the wound and form a sticky residue which can cause complications. They are not designed for use on healing piercings.

Don't over clean. Cleaning more often than once or twice a day is NOT better. This can delay your healing and irritate your piercing.

Don't use too many different products; select and use only one cleaning solution (such as Provon or Satin) plus sea salt.

Avoid oral contact, rough play, and contact with others' bodily fluids on or near your piercing during healing.

Don't use bandaids on a healing piercing. They limit air circulation and the adhesive can irritate the surrounding area.

Avoiding sleeping on a piercing during healing is advisable.

Don't hang charms or any object from your jewelry until the piercing is fully healed.

Avoid submerging your piercings in water such as pools, lakes, jacuzzis, etc. unless you feel confident that the water is clean enough for you and an open wound (which is what your piercing is while it is healing). Most bodies of water harbor large amounts of bacteria. If there is sea life, motor oil or children in the water it is not clean enough!

If you are going to be in water of questionable cleanliness, use a breathable, non water-permeable wound sealant such as Tegaderm or Clean Seals (available at drugstores and pharmacies) before you go in, to protect yourself and prevent dirty water from getting inside your open wound. Cleaning afterwards is not likely to be effective in preventing infection.

Exercise during healing is fine, just "listen" to your body. Try to avoid activities that put undue stress on the area. Your own sweat and bodily fluids are not harmful to your piercing, provided you clean daily as directed.

Answer 2

if you just got the naval pierced do not use alcohol because it drys your skin in the out side but not in the inside of the hole so your not going to be able to clean it good,to clean it buy sea water that sell it in the super market and soft soup antibacterial one.
first wet it with water,then take a Cotton ball and rub it with the soft soap then take a cup put a Lil bite of warm water w/ sea salt and let it fall rite in the piercing.do it three times a day.hope this helps

Answer 3

I'm sure you could. I don't see why not. It was invented for the same thing. I mean I've had friends who's used ear piercing solution for their nose piercings. It's fine. If you can't use peroxide is just fine. It won't do anything nasty to you. I mean I've used peroxide for stuff like that.

Answer 4

I would suggest using an antibacterial soap, such as Dial no perfumes added. The alcohol in the solution doesn't let piercings heal.

Answer 5

You should be fine using the soloution your piercer gave you.
If your not still not sure, make your own saline soloution just boil a cup of water and add 1/4 of sea salt, this is pretty much the formula most creditable palours will follow.

Answer 6

I don't see why not. I mean the cleansing solution is for a piercing so why not.

Answer 7

yes you can it is meant for the same kind of thing

good luck ^_^

Answer 8

rubbing alcohol is just fine, and its cheap!
