hmm.. well i used some on mine and it went red and itchy-ish. so i'd say no lol. dont take a chance, because iodized is too strong. u can get pre-mixed saline/rock salt water at chemist in a spray bottle. much easier. it has to be boling water becas it gets all the bacteria out and disolves rock salt but this has been boiled then cooled.

Using 1/4tsp of sea salt with 8oz. of warm water, and soak the piercing for about 10 minutes twice a day. It is the best thing to help heal your piercing. When you are in the shower, use Dial soap to clean it also. But sea salt soaks are amazing for helping heal a piercing.
