Can people with psoriasis have a piercing of the ear?
Whether psoriasis patients can have ear piercings is determined according to the time of psoriasis, and it is best not to have ear piercings if psoriasis patients are in the ongoing phase. If a patient with psoriasis is in a stable or resolving phase, the choice of ear piercing should be performed according to the recovery of their condition.
You can judge whether you can perform ear piercing according to the following period characteristics:
Progression period
The progression of psoriasis, as the name suggests, is the period when psoriasis continues to develop. It is manifested by the continuous appearance of new rashes, the continuous expansion of old rashes, the increasing number of scales and the accumulation of thickening step by step, and the inflammation of skin lesions is more obvious, often manifested as bright red, itching is obvious, and the sensitivity of the patient's skin is increased.
Quiescent period
The quiescent phase of psoriasis is also called the stabilization phase, the development of skin lesions has basically stopped, the inflammation has not been obvious, the red halo has subsided, the lesions have gradually shrunk, flattened, and the scales have decreased, and this period can be maintained for a considerable period of time.
Phase of regression
The old rash recedes, the scales thin, break and disappear. Some lesions resolve centrally, ringing or semi-ringing, some are extra-large and divided into many small pieces, and most lesions begin to recede from the periphery, gradually shrink, and finally become pale white spots or dark brown pigmentation spots.

Why can't I have a piercing of the ear during the in-progression period?
As we all know, piercing the ear requires steel needles or silver needles to penetrate the ear, generally forming a small hole in the earlobe, for patients with psoriasis in the ongoing period, the skin is in a highly sensitive state of external stimuli, prone to homomorphic reactions.

What exactly is a same-sex reaction?
Homomorphic reactions are generally thought to be related to factors such as immune factors, vascular factors, growth factors, inhibitors, increased activity of dermatode alcohol, etc. The number of mast cells at the site of injury increases, and the mast cell granule response promotes the formation of new blood vessels.
The homomorphic reaction caused by the piercing of the ear is caused by the piercing of the ear, mainly because the piercing of the skin, which also forms a small trauma, stimulates the sensitivity of the trauma, and the patient produces new psoriatic lesions at the eye of the skin punctured by the silver needle and the steel needle.
In fact, there may be the following potential dangers in going to the ear piercing:
Increases infection
After the ear piercing needs to be cleaned later, if the psoriasis patient has multiple skin lesions, thick scales, if the location of the ear piercing is more special, there are scales in the ear, then it will increase the difficulty of dealing with the hygiene in and around the ear hole, and it is easy to cause inflammation if it is not cleaned. If the skin is not strictly disinfected, it is easy to get aids, hepatitis B and other infectious diseases.
If you have an ear hole in the auricle, ear screen and other cartilage tissue, in fact, these places are easy to cause infection, but also may hurt the nerves, resulting in cartilage necrosis, deformation and ear atrophy. If patients with psoriasis use hormonal drugs in the course of long-term treatment, severe disease will also induce facial nerve paralysis.
Because of the particularity of piercing the ear, the state stipulates that the ear piercing should be performed in a professional medical institution, and most people can only go to a place that is not professional enough. If it is not professional enough, then the wound is easy to bring in bacterial viruses, causing the wound to be repeatedly infected, and over time it will form an unsightly epileptic keloid. This can cause serious psychological harm to patients with psoriasis.
In summary, ear piercings should be fully considered in patients with psoriasis, and patients with progressive disease should avoid ear piercings. Patients in the stationary phase and the fading phase can choose some ear clip gold and silver products, or they can choose to pierce the ear, but be sure to disinfect the ear piercing to avoid infection.
