Hello this is just a quick question in relation to my preauricular ear pit. I ve only recently become familiar with the medical term after searching Google. I was born with two preauricular ear pits (one on each ear) but had the left one removed as a toddler as it kept getting infected. My question is, would it be safe to pierce through that already existing hole? I ve always wanted to get a piercing there but wasn t sure if I could and as for the other side there is quite a noticeable scar. I m assuming preauricular pits are genetic because 3 generations of my family all have at least one on their ear... Should I just leave it or could I put jewellery in it? Thank you very much.
