Can I hide my jewelry during surgery?
I had my wisdom teeth removed, and I went under, and I hid my septum ring in my nose and they didn't notice and it was fine. I'm having surgery on my foot and was wondering if I could proceed to keep it in and not tell them? I don't think it is metal.
Opinions on body jewelry?
Do you fellas think that body jewelry is a turn on??? I mostly have ear piercings, but also a nose stud and a tongue ring and I'm thinking about getting a tiny stud on my upper lip. Do you guys think body jewelry can be sexy?
How do I treat skin discoloration caused from jewelry?
I recently replaced my normal steel nose jewelry with a plastic retainer for a job interview. Prior to this, I had a perfectly healed nostril piercing. It looked wonderful. The plastic caused a reaction that caused discoloration on part of my nostril. I know it's from that because I replaced it with the steel again after extensive cleaning and the swelling that had also been present diminished, along with a fair amount of the discoloration. However, some still remains. Since I have no insurance, I made it a point to make sure to call my doctor. It's not an infection. The symptoms of one are no longer present if there was one at all. Now it's just that dark coloring. I'm very pale and the color is more of a tannish kind of flesh color now. I can be thankful for that because at least it is not red anymore.I've been steaming it with a hot compress which seems to help a TON, but does anyone know of anything else I can do? I wouldn't even mind this if it was on my ears or other piercings on my body, but of course it has to be on my nose where everyone can see it.Thanks so much, guys
What do you do if your nose piercing seals over the jewelry?
I have gotten a nose piercing about 5 days ago. And it all went well, no problems at all, respectable piercer, clean shop, everything. I have cleaned it, inside and out with saline solution. But when I went to school, fake piercings are all the rage amongst 6th grade girls and some guy decided that it wasn't real, so he could punch scratch it out of my face. Is that what caused it sealing? It looks like some odd bump, that I just noticed this morning Monday, December 12 , and I've triedto push it up, from the inside, but nothing has worked. Any suggestions? Thank you soooo much
I'm allergic to jewelry that contains nickel...?
When I wear necklaces, my neck breaks out and starts itching really bad. I found out there is something I can put on my jewelry to protect me from the nickel nickel solutions but I don't want to spend $20 and it possibly not work. Are there any other things I can try before investing my money? Someone suggested clear nail polish. Has anyone tried that?
Any info on alpaca/camel bone jewelry?
a bit bizzar, but has anyone here ever heard of jewelry being made out of alpaca or camel bone? i am trying to find some kind of either feather, wing or angel pendant or charm online to make my own necklace as i cant find one ready made that i like, but i dont want to spend loads skint but also want it to be something special as its to represent my angel baby, long story short, most charms etc look really cheap and not very special, but i have found some alpaca camel bone earrings would remove the hook and use it as a pendant they are very striking looking and certainly something special but i can not find any info online about wearing bone for jewelry, for example, is it crule? feel a bit reluctant for this reason is it safe? cant help but wonder what diseases bones could carry not sure if my worry is a bit extream though? and also how fragile is it? as i plan on wearing it 24 7 not just once in a while... any info would be fab if anyone has any better idea... i am a bit stumped
I've had a piece of jewelry since I was eight, and have recently lost it. How do I not flip my sh*t?
It had a lovely golden or rather, previously golden it had become mostly silver over the almost decade I'd had and constantly worn it chain and a custom made line of colored glass arranged to look like a rainbow for its dangly bit. It was a cheap thing, only something like twenty dollars I still loved it more than any single piece of " fancy" , " real" jewelry my grandmother had ever and has ever shown me.I wore it all the time, and took it off to cosplay with a friend for a few hours. Like an idiot, I stuffed it in my back pocket. I've since checked everywhere, and am ninety nine point nine percent positive it's not going to be found. It's too small of a thing to put lost posters up for, and even if I did the odds that someone would have picked it up are slim to none we weren't exactly in the " best" of areas .I'm well aware of the fact that the necklace isn't something " important" , like money or an irreplaceable photo of a loved one or a credit card, but damn if it wasn't important to me. I've had it for so many years, and have worn it almost constantly since I started highschool. And I do mean almost constantly. I wore it under the costumes of plays, and in my suit during swimming competition.s For gods sake, I showered in the thing. I even DREW myself in it when I made comics to spoof the random things my friends and I did or wrote them notes.The point here being, the necklace was as corny and as melodramatic as it sounds a part of my identity. It was the only piece of jewelry that I wore, and the only item of clothing that I gave half a care about I'm not " huge" on fashion .My question, in gist, is how do I get over this spectacularly insignificant item of dress, regardless of how close I may have held it to myself?
Unhappily getting medic alert jewelry for the first time, but need advice from professionals?
I had an anaphylactic reaction to penecillin, ibuprofen, aspirin and lidocaine out of the blue ten years ago when they were all administered to me at once by a dentist.I have been pretty irresponsible about the sutuation since as far as carrying anything on me that indicates this. I am uneasy about wearing anything that identifies me as weak or vulnerable, especially because I'm already a small person.I have a few questions about medic alert jewelry 1 Would anyone think to look for a medic alert anklet or those shoe tags you slip onto your shoelaces? They seem like a much more discreet option, but if they would probably go unnoticed, I wouldn't get them.2 Should the jewelry have abbreviations for my allergies or the whole words for the medications that i can't have spelled out? Should it mention that I carry an epipen?3 I saw bracelets that look nothing like medic alerts on a website. For example, leather cuffs with the little cross thing stamped into the leather on the front and medical info stamped onto the back. Would medical workers look at anything I wear on my wrist, neck, shoes,etc enough to notice it was a medic alert? I wear a ton of rings and other jewelry, so that might be a task.Any info is helpful, because I don't know much about this and I'm doing it rather grudgingly, with the knowledge that it's the responsible thing to do. I'd rather get something that looks nothing like a medic alert, or is concealed, such as on my ankle, but if that's a bad idea, I guess I'll just do what I should. Ugh.Thanks in advance
I just used silver jewelry cleaner and it says it causes cancer, will I get cancer if I used it just once?
I'm not really sure what to think about it. It says that it is a cause of cancer, and AFTER I used it I saw it. This is the first time I used it and it was only for about 5 mins or even less. I don't THINK anything will happen. hopefully my thinking was correct I'm just curious of how many times you would have to be using that stuff for it to actually possibly affect. I don't plan to use it again, I had one pair of earings that were dirty. And is it okay to clean earrings with that and then put them in your ears? Stupid question but just curious. Okay, thanks
Re-pierced my tongue piercing with my jewelry...?
I took out my piercing for about 4 days. It closed up a little. So I took my jewelry and poked through it. It was sore for about 4 days which was expected . It's been a little over a week now and it's still a little sore but I've noticed some soreness on the left side of my tongue. There are no signs of infection around the hole. But I'm wondering if the pain on the side of my tongue can be something other than an infection related to the piercing.... any comments or thoughts? Thanks in advance.
Allergy to silver and nickel. Remedies for jewelry?
I was just paid and looking for a last minute Christmas present for my best friend. I am looking for a dragonfly design necklace hard to find as it is that isn't made of silver and or nickel. I was wondering if I did get her one of these necklaces that she has an allergy to, then would there be some sort of spray I could have applied to the necklace so she wouldn't have any allergic reactions to it? Or if there is an ointment remedy she could apply to her skin or ingest so that she won't have any problems. Happy holidays.
