What Are The Side Effects Of Septum Piercing?
Hi, I m thinking about getting my spetum pierced and I m really concern about sinus infections and other infections which i could get it from spetum piercing. Would you be able to tell me what kind of health issue I should be aware of from spetum piercing ?

no there will be no sinus infection but if the person who is going to do that, by mistaken pierced nasal septum cartilage, then there are chances of perichondritis and infection,,,,,so do it in the lower part of collumella, where no cartilage is present
