How old should you be when you get your ears pierced?

I got impetigo when I was 4 years old after I got my ears pierced. Is it possible for me to get it again?

  • I want to pierce my ears again. And it has been 12 years after it happened.

  • Answer:

    Impetigo is most common among children 2 to 6 years old. People who play close contact sports such as rugby, American football and wrestling are also susceptible, regardless of age. Impetigo is not as common in adults. But to be on the safe side I would make sure I get them done professionally.

Yes you could get again, it is just a staphylococcus infection. Get your mum to take you a properly qualified practitioner who will pierce the ear properly and also under hygienic conditions.

yes, it's a staph infection, make sure your piercing is done with aseptic technique (sterile) and then keep them clean with antiseptic solution afterwards

it might have just been one of those things that you got impetigo at the same time you got your ears pierced the klast time i have had impetigo a few times and it can be caused with all sorts of things so go and get you ears pierced and dont worry to much good luck
