Does septum piercing take really long to heal? How long does it take exactly?
Strictly speaking, almsgiving means giving financially or materially to someone in need. In a broader sense, almsgiving refers to acts of mercy, covering the spiritual and corporal works of mercy. The fact that God blesses those who help the poor and needy is clear throughout the Bible. Giving alms purifies us and helps us grow in virtue, particularly those of charity, mercy and generosity. We are called to give, driven by a love for God and neighbor.
Normally, Septum piercings do take a long time to heal. But it also depends on the type of skin an individual has. The longer you leave the earring in, the better. You should wait 6-8 months before removal. If you find that it’s too long to wait, as long as it’s healed well, you can change the septum piercing, in 6-8 weeks time.
I had the piercing done in mid December, and it wasn’t completely healed until late April, which means it took roughly 4 months to heal. The piercer told me that most piercings heal between 6-8 weeks, but my septum took a lot longer than that to heal completely. I’m a slow healer, so I had to do sea salt soaks every night for around two months. I’d advise you just leave it alone. Part of my slow healing time was due to the fact that I kept moving the jewelry around, fiddling with it, and constantly scraping the crusties off, which was not only unnecessary but actually irritated the piercing and slowed down the healing process. In retrospect, if I had left the piercing alone, I’m sure it would have healed faster.
