My breasts are 38DD. I had no problem with my nipples healing up; took about 6 months before I considered them completely healed, enough to change jewelry styles, etc. I was careful with their care: I washed them daily with Provon soap in the shower, and soaked them several times a day in sea salt solution, an actual soaking, not just the saline spray. I got little shot glasses, mixed the salt solution, and sat with them capped over my nipples for 5-10 minutes to remove any secretions before turning the rings. I washed my hands before handling my nipples, and my husband did not suck them for the first 6 weeks.
The piercing was a brief sharp pain, that was sort of pleasant; my husband was standing behind me, holding my hair back, while I leaned against his chest, so the piercing was sort of an intimate experience for us. I wore a bra night and day for the first couple of weeks, until the soreness diminished. The first couple of days, I was careful of how I moved around, but after that, my daily activities were not affected. I never had any infection or pus, just the normal clear lymph fluid that makes the crusties at the edges, and after a couple of weeks, that was mostly gone. I had rings done, but next time, I would choose barbells for better comfort, I think.
I did not lose any sensitivity in my nipples, as a matter of fact, the piercing made my nipples double in size, not due to any inflammation or anything, I believe it just increased the stimulation and blood flow to them. They stayed constantly erect, and the sight of them when I wore a tank top pretty much stopped traffic. I had to give them up when I had several hospital stays last year, and I miss them. When I am done with doctors, I plan to get them back again.
