Why are these piercing so crazy?

👉 Snake Eyes / Horizontal Tongue Piercings

The tongue has two separate muscles and major veins running lengthwise. A horizontal bar can restrict movement, increase tooth damage, and risk hitting veins or nerves. Because of these complications, most professionals advise against this style.

👉 Mandible Piercing

Piercing through the jaw means navigating thick bone, veins, and salivary glands plus a long, difficult healing process. The risks are significant, so it isn’t recommended for safe or functional wear.

👉 Dermals Over Joints (Ring Finger)

Fingers bend, grip, and touch surfaces constantly, making rejection and irritation almost inevitable. Since it can affect hand use and hygiene, a more stable location is the safer choice.

👉 Uvula Piercing

Located deep in the throat, this piercing can trigger gagging, interfere with swallowing, and pose a choking hazard if jewelry loosens. Infection concerns make it an unsafe long-term option.

👉 Achilles Piercing

Right over a crucial tendon for walking, this area is extremely vulnerable. Any injury or infection can lead to serious mobility issues, which is why it’s not considered a safe piercing placement.

👉 Subclavicle Piercing

Under the collarbone are major blood vessels and moving structures. Rejection, migration, and severe complications are common making this piercing unsafe in standard body piercing practice.

👉 Final Thoughts

Not every piercing that trends online is designed for real-world healing. Stick with placements that are proven safe for the body, and always choose experienced professionals who prioritize long-term health over shock factor.
