Do Bridge Piercings Hurt?
The nose bridge is a seemingly sensitive body part. However, it does not cause that much pain compared to other types of piercing. While this process seems to go through the bone, it actually runs under a thin skin layer across your nose. The needle and jewelry only go through the dermisand epidermis tissue rather than the bone. No matter which piercing methods are applied, it tends to put some pressure that would make you feel a bit uncomfortable between the eyes. This may lead to pain or swelling afterwards. Fortunately, OTC medications, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen can help relieve these problems quickly. [4]
