1 /5 Irina V: On May 14, I got piercing in Melrose location.
The next day hell started. My ear doubled in size and was swollen, behind the ear was bruising and lymph nodes are inflamed! it was so painful that I could neither touch nor sleep from the pain. I thought it’s fine, it’s healing process, so 4 days on painkillers.
But I couldn’t stand this pain anymore and returned to the store, took off the earring, the master said that she doesn’t know what’s going on. My ear was festering and that same day I went to the emergency room. There I was told that there was a terrible infection and I have to get really painful, emergency antibiotic shot I was also prescribed a course of antibiotics and I missed work because of all this.
Terrible experience, 10 days of pain, antibiotics and doctors. And it’s still not done. Still trying to figure out with lymph nodes and pain leftovers.
*UPD*
I contact Mejuri as they asked me under this review just to be told that all possible infections, Hepatitis and I guess HIV I could get during the procedure it’s only my problem and basically they don’t care.
So be careful, if something going wrong with your piercing, only you gonna face it as well as you medical bills!
