In some cases, your body might reject a piercing due to allergies. You can recognize an allergic reaction by a burning sensation, severe itching, gaping skin, a rash, or clear to yellowish discharge around your piercing. Doctors can recognize allergies by looking at your skin, but they cannot pinpoint specific allergies. Visit a dermatologist if you want a skin patch test to verify with certainty whether you're allergic to your piercing. Metal allergies are usually lifelong and cannot be treated. If your body's rejecting the piercing due to allergy, you must remove the piercing. Avoid jewelry made of whatever metal your piercing was to avoid future rejection. You may be able to use surgical steel piercings if you suffer from metal allergies. Surgical steel is designed to not cause allergic reactions. Wait  6-12 months before you get pierced again. Before you get another piercing, get a skin patch test to check which metals you're allergic to. Choose a hypoallergenic piercing made of a metal you know won't trigger a reaction. Tungsten, titanium, silver, platinum, and 14-karat gold are all hypoallergenic alloys.
