    Scientifically:

    Ear piercing has medicinal benefits.

    Piercing at a young age helps in the development of sensory organs.

    The ears are connected to sensory organs like the brain, eyes, and tongue.

    So it helps in the overall development of the health of hearing, brain development, vision, and speech.


    Practically:

    Post-piercing care is very important.

    Small babies are in parent's control, hence the post-piercing care is easy to follow with them compared to grown-up kids who are active and have ample activities.

    So babies heal from post-piercing while sleeping, eating, and playing.

    We suggest parents do it after the initial 2 vaccination shots (DPT) and when the baby is healthy, with no fever or ear infection.

    Conclusion: As per our experience with children, the recovery is fastest from 2 weeks old to 6 months old.
