Dr. Julie Youngs has recently begun a safe ear piercing service at PAHCS. No matter what your age, it's advised that you have ear piercing done by a medical professional under private, controlled surroundings. Our doctors use sterile procedures to protect members of your family against infection. Doctors recommend piercing only the actual ear lobe or the soft outer edge of the ear. They advise against piercing the cartilage, as it does not heal in the same way and is prone to infections. Contact the Paynesville Area Medical Clinic at 320-243-3779 for more information or to make an appointment. Information from the Hastings Corporation 2003
