clit piercings

[warrior queen]

Ethyl chloride's not a drug, it's a shot of liquid cold...it works simply by chilling the area. Dr's use it to numb injection sites, but there's no special training for its use, massage therapists commonly use it for trigger point massage
I will bow to your expertise in piercing use tho, it's not my area

i just think that if someone were to come at my clit with a substance that is used by doctors to kill cells (as in when it is used to burn off warts etc.) then i'd want to be damn sure they had trained enough in the use of that substance, to know how much to use!

'sorry, darl, think i used a little too much there, but hey, at least it didn't hurt!'
NO WAY!
not this chick anyhow.
give me a second of pain over the chance of a mistake any day.

ROFL
Major diference in the packaging and strength of the stuff used to take off bad cells and the stuff used topically, but I concede the point

I have said this on another thread but here goes

The thing is whenever the body is damaged the nerves can be affected. The end result can be large or small and it can increase or decrease sensitivity but you will never know you are always taking a risk. When you pierce something like the earlobe there are fewer nerves to damage, but as you move toward the areas of sexuality like the clitoris or the nipple where there are significantly more nerves you increase your chances of damaging a nerve.

accually i have never really understood the allure of it all

It was neither stinging nor burning. It was EXCRUCIATING. No joke. But like I said, it was so fast that by the time it registered the pain was gone. I didn't even feel the jewelry going in (is it in yet, lol).

I'm not sure lidocaine would work, I think the nerves are too deep. As I understand it, Lido doesn't penetrate if applied topically.

you are absolutely correct!
lidocaine simply deadens the surface of the flesh.
but, and i will emphasise this, most pain is not the actual pain itself, but rather the fear of pain.
using lidocaine most often makes my clients think they're not going to feel much, and because their anxiety is lessened, the whole experience is better for them.

yes, i agree, if you damage any part of your body, then you do have the possibility of damaging the underlying nerve structure also.

however, a fully trained and qualified piercer will have also learnt some anatomy, and will be aware of where the nerves run and how to find, and avoid, them.

in the case of nipples, the nerves are not a single fibre as such, there are many nerves running back off the nipple and aerole, so the chances of damaging all of them are nil.

as for the clitoris, the nerve bundle which runs up into the body from here is extremely easy to detect, and therefore it's simple to avoid.

i will say this again though.....
if you're thinking of getting pierced in the genital area, do the research, shop around, and try to find the piercer who has the most experience with genital piercing. asking for customer referals is also a good idea - if you know someone who has had this done, ask them how their experience was, and make your final decision based on as much info as you can get.

 

[Dr. Tentakelliebe]

yes but each human body is built different this is why surgeries and medicins will have drastically different on people.

but yes you can become relatively safe I'm just addressing the sensitivity issue

A question, WQ...

the pain is felt differently by each person - some think it's like a burning sensation, others describe it as being like a really bad bee-sting, and some others say they didn't really feel it.

it could be described as a short, sharp burning pain that lasts about 1/2 second, but that feels like it lasts a whole lot longer than that!

the actual needle-work (putting the needle through) only takes 1/2 a second, then pushing the jewelry through the canula is another 1/2 second, but that bit is more uncomfortable than painful.
and once the jewelry is in, there's no more actual pain (and most people find at this point, with me fiddling around putting the balls on/in, is when they begin to have orgasmic reactions).

if you are really seriously worried about pain, ask your piercer to use something like Lidocaine Ointment first to numb the area - but be aware that any anaesthetic will cause the tissues to swell, meaning that any bruising will be exaggerated and the swelling can also cause the end result to be slightly off-centre!
(i prefer NOT to use any anaesthetic for that reason.)

I have my tongue pierced, which didn't really hurt that bad in my opinion. I was thinking of getting my clit pierced, too. What is the pain like in comparison, and what gage cannula is used to do it?

on the 1 to 10 scale i used previously in this thread, tongue piercing is a 1.
clit-hood is a 5 - 6.

usually a 14guage is used, anything smaller can cause problems like 'migration' of the jewelry.

[sheheri*]

Oh no! We don't want any migrating! I wasn't sure where tongue piercing rated on the scale, so thank you for answering that for me! Now to just muster up the courage....

migrating?

 

[warrior queen]

migrating?

.... is when jewelry is slowly pushed to the surface of the skin because of either too thin a guage, or too much 'pull' on the piece.

Hmmmm..........thanks for your replies and opinions

So, after reading them I have decided that I am way too much of a wimp and therefore I will NOT be piercing any other part of my body! (not at the moment anyway - never say never)! lol
I remember catching my navel several times after having it done and it hurt alot - a clit one I imagine would be alot worse.

It is not for everyone, and like I said I never understood what this really but get in the way (I could easially be missing something as none of my gf's ever had one)

i wasn't going to answer you
but feel strangely compelled to give you a brief description!

basically, clit piercings enable you to stimulate the clit in several ways simultaneously.
like the usual finger/tongue on the outside of the clit - and the bar on the inside right up against the nerve bundle.

and if you've watched your gf sqirm from touching her clit in the right place - then just picture how she'd be if you were doubly stimulating it!

the attraction of the piercing is that it enables deeper, and more direct, stim of the area.

i doubt there's a woman here who's had it done, that would consider going back to not having one!

wow that explains alot
