If visiting hospital, ensure you wash your hands thoroughly before and afterwards; if you are an in-patient, check all the proper hygiene procedures are observed on the ward.

Such needs are eating, drinking, sleeping, socialising, maintaining proper hygiene and using the bathroom.

Lack of understanding of proper hygiene lead to less sanitary conditions than what both traditional and modernist producers maintain today.

Less than 2% follow proper hygiene, only 5% have access to safe water, and over 80% are living below the poverty line.

When getting the procedure done by a professional and following his or her instructions, along with proper hygiene and good health, these piercings should heal without incident.
