Nipple piercing question

---

I also have two balls on mine...wait a minute, what were we talking about?

I would assume that nerves run through the nipple, including the part that gets pierced, so there might be some risk of hitting a nerve when the piercing is done.

You know, I really don't know if there are nerves in the nipple. But the piercer IS a professional. The place I went to does strictly body piercing. They have thier certificates on the wall etc. Anyway, your nipple is hard when they do it. So, I suppose it would be easier to tell where the nerves may be. I have my tongue pierced too and I know there is a vein in there that they have to watch out for. That's why it kind of goes at an angle. Also, women have a thicker gauge (sp?) because their nipples are bigger than a man. So if there are nerves, why wouldn't they put a smaller jewelry in the nipple? I don't know. I was told by the piercer I have great anatomy for nipple piercing.

There are nerves every where. Can you feel your nipple??? Yes? Nerves. And you can't physically avoid the nerves in teh nipple.

If you can't avoid them, what happens when they hit the nerve?

I think the question isn't so much if they are going to "hit" a nerve but are they going to sever a nerve, and how major of a nerve will they damage? If they damaged one close to the skin and only killed sensation in .09mm of nipple then it'd be no biggy, but if they hit further down and killed sensation to a larger area of the nipple it probably wouldn't be so fun. You know they do make "clip-on" type nipple rings...

before I had mine pierced the piercer looked at the size of my nipples to see which size bar would be suitable. One friend had his done and they went too far back in the cartlidge of the nipple which caused him that much pain he passed out. I went to a different piercer and I can honestly say I have not lost any sensation in it at all.Steve A--as for the balls they are at the end of the bar. They screw on to keep it in place if that makes sense??!!

do you think guys find nipple piercings sexy or not tho? bcos im not sure, some find it a real turn off wheras others just find it kinkywhen my friend got her nipple pierced the piercer cut the bar or whatever ist called to size and she had no problem.

I think it varies some blokes like it some don't. I would say if you are going to have it done have it done because you want to. My husband wasn't really bothered if I had it done but I wanted it done for me to give me my boobs some sexuality instead of feeling like they were milking machines!! It worked for me and I love having one pierced. If the bloke really hates it you can always take it out but I am a good girl and only show my man (unless I am really drunk hee hee)

i have both my nipples pierced and i dont think they got more sensitive. i have big nipples and i enjoy my barbells

Well I have one fo my nipples pierced and I can honestly say the nipple that is pierced as a higher sensative level. When it's being played with it gets be HIGHLY arroused.
