If you are doing the piercing yourself at home and want to know how long to keep the ice on it, it really depends on you. It is usually safe after having it on your ear for around 2 minutes. But is you fell you're ready before the 2 min. is up you should go for it.
You should keep the ice on your ear for 4 minutes
Wrap ice cubes or an ice pack in a piece of cloth, hold it to your ear for 5 minutes and remove. Gently poke your ear after a few seconds, and see if you can feel your nail. If you can, reapply the ice package for a further 2 minutes and check again. Once it is done, leave your ear alone.
wait for the swelling to go down. Or put some ice on it to numb it if it hurts that much.
My thumb feels numb from the ice water it was in.
As long as the ice melts.
A tip is to suck on ice for an hour before the piercing, it will help to numb it.
If you put ice on it for a certain amount of time then your penis will turn numb.
Place it in ice.
Yes. The ice cream will numb the pain. It only hurts for a couple of days.
i got a burn from a curling iron. rub the burn on your ear, or rub alchohol on it
I think its because of pressure on the ice
Ice it until it is numb. put ice on the ear for awhile till you wont feel it... Don't let your friends pierce your ears. Go to someone who pierces ears professionally, and they'll do it quick so all you'll feel is a slight pinch if you feel anything. If your friend does it, she'll be all "let me do it slow so it won't hurt" and then it will hurt. If you do it quick, it's done before your brain knows something that's supposed to hurt is being done to you. A professional piercer won't numb your ears because you don't need it.
