i got it pierced about 2 days ago, and when i cleaned it a couple minutes ago i noticed a whiteish colored substance on the bar, is that normal? It was a very very little bit. It was professionally done, so i know the needles and everything were sterilized. It barely hurts at all, there’s little to no swelling, and i’ve been cleaning it like i should. So, what’s the deal?


The white stuff you talk about is called Lymph, it’s perfectly normal with new piercings- in fact everyone gets it. it subsides after around two weeks though. Don’t worry, lymph isnt dangerous and it isnt unusual!
that is lymph.
it is a substance that contains white blood cells.
it comes out because it is a sign that it is healing, and that your taking care of it.
when it dries , it forms crusties around the piercing.
if it at anytime turns green or yellow, then you should worry.
just keep cleaning it and youll be fine.
It’s just discharge. It’s totally okay. If the discharge
turns green, you know your piercing is troubled.
I had this stuff on my eyebrow when i had that pierced… i think its normal, as mine just went away after couple weeks…
that even happens to ears! Im sure its normal… you just punctured a hole in yourself like its bound to react some how!!! lol
its fine. it is probably just like pus
