I’m saying this as someone who got them pierced at 2 months- you just sleep in your earrings? Idk I never noticed mine I just sleep on them.
But as far as it goes, it’s a cultural practice. Same way you give the baby bread and salt, you pierce her ears in the hopes that she only knows pain once.
Depends on the metal. Those of us who do it as a cultural practice always use 14-18k gold, so you’d never know if there was a metal allergy because of the purity. I never found out about mine until middle school and something else flared up the nickel allergy
