Swelling. Swelling is pretty much a given with almost any piercing. This is why many piercers will recommend long barbells in your nipple — it lets your nipple tissue swell up without any obstruction. See your piercer if swelling is especially noticeable or painful.
Subsequently, do your nipples grow back after piercing?
Smaller injuries can heal with proper care. However, if a nipple is completely damaged or removed from the body, it won’t grow back. While rare, one or both nipples can be lost in an accident.
In this regard, do you have to wear a bra after getting your nipples pierced?

If you sweat, remove your bra, cleanse your piercing, and then don a new bra. … The little ring isn’t going to make that much of a difference in cup size, and a snug bra will feel better during the healing process.
