Will a one-month-old ear piercing close up if you don't wear earrings for one day?
Generally, an ear piercing will not close after just one day without wearing earrings if it has been a month since the piercing.
After getting an ear piercing, wounds commonly occur on the earlobe, manifesting as redness, warmth, swelling, and pain. Some individuals may also experience a burning sensation. Proper care is important during this time—for example, cleaning the area daily with iodine or alcohol can help disinfect and reduce inflammation, preventing infection. The wound usually gradually returns to normal within about two weeks. However, it's essential to continue wearing earrings during this period; otherwise, the piercing may easily close. Typically, one day without wearing earrings after a month will not cause the piercing to close, as the skin around the piercing has already healed sufficiently. One day of non-wearing generally won't adversely affect the piercing. Nevertheless, prolonged periods without earrings should be avoided to prevent adhesion or closure of the piercing.
After getting an ear piercing, individuals may choose to wear comfortable earrings such as those made of pure silver or pure gold. These materials are less likely to cause allergic reactions in the body, thereby minimizing the risk of allergy and promoting faster wound healing.
