In a now-viral video, TikTok user @_therealnugwa revealed how what initially seemed like a simple and routine ear piercing gradually turned into a health nightmare. Two years after getting the piercing, she noticed the growth of a keloid, which eventually grew to the size of a peanut at the site of the piercing.

She captioned her video with the words: “If only I knew what was waiting for me,” expressing her regret and warning others about the potential risks associated with piercings.

Although the surgery to remove the keloid was successful, she disclosed that her doctors advised her to undergo cryotherapy as a preventive measure to stop the keloid from growing back. Sharing her doctor’s advice, she said: “There’s a high tendency for it to grow back, that’s what my doctor said. I just did the surgery, so I still have to do something they call cryotherapy so it doesn’t grow back.”

Her experience resonated with many social media users, who took to the comments section to share their similar ordeals and empathize with her situation.

One social media user, @Sugar 🍫🧫🎪🎃, commented: “Story of my life 😂 after 3rd ear lobe and after 2 years of piercing it 🥺 surgically removed it and it is growing back. It breaks my heart.”

Another user, @jiddarhusman, added, “Same thing happened to me, I had the surgery thrice because it kept reoccurring. After a long line of treatment, I pierced again and I’m rocking 3 piercings now 🥰.”

The incident has sparked widespread conversations about the risks associated with piercings, particularly for individuals who may be prone to developing keloids. It has also prompted discussions about the importance of consulting medical professionals and taking precautions when considering body modifications.
