Contrary to urban legend, this piercing is not at all dangerous. Perhaps the only additional risk is that your hands come in contact with more foreign bacteria than any other part of your body. Additional care needs to be taken to keep everything clean. As well as regular cleaning, salt soaks are essential.
 
To minimize [[Rejection|rejection]], placement is essential. An experienced piercer will place the jewelry so that it moves minimally and irritates the exit holes as little as possible. In addition, you may find that taping the surrounding fingers reduces the stresses that everyday movements put on the exit holes.

A piercing performed with a needle as opposed to a gun.

Ear piercings are generally performed in one of two ways: with a sterile piercing needle, or with an "ear gun", as those found in the mall. When describing ear piercings, it is sometimes desirable to specify "needle piercing" so people aren't mislead into believing you're stupid enough to allow an ear gun to touch you.
