Piercings through the foreskin are fast to heal and can be done with practically any jewelry.

If you have looked up this entry to find out if a foreskin will affect other piercings, it all depends on the tightness of the foreskin. A PA is almost never affected, but dydoes, apadravyas, and ampallangs may be negatively affected if the foreskin is quite tight.
