Nipple Piercing Jewelry:

Nipple piercings can be positioned horizontally or vertically. Rings are usually chosen as the initial jewelry in horizontal piercings because they can be cleaned more easily than barbells. The diameter of the ring should be at least 1/4" wider than the piercing. No more than 1/4 of the ring should be through the piercing. The ring should comfortably flip up and down. A ring which is too small in diameter will constrict the piercing and cause the piercing to migrate and scar. The nipple will swell when newly pierced. Often, the nipple enlarges permanently as a result of piercing. The ring must be wide enough to accommodate swelling and potential enlargement of the nipple. After the piercing has completely healed a smaller diameter ring can be worn. Straight and curved barbells are used for vertical piercings. Barbells may be more appropriate than rings for horizontal piercings if the wearer engages in contact sports or daily physical activities that involve lifting and carrying. The barbell should be 1/8" longer than the width of the piercing to accommodate swelling and potential enlargement of the nipple. The barbell balls should be small enough in diameter so that they do not create pressure against the areola which can cause the piercing to migrate.
