I am a type 1 diabetic and
would like my nipples pierced? Do of think it is ok?
I think all diabetics are at risk for infection. Why do you want to undergo an unnecessary procedure that puts you at risk for an infection? Piercing of body parts is often done by non-healthcare professionals who have no concept of sterility. My advice to all diabetics is that the less you muck around with your body, the less likely you are going to have complications. As far as whether you can have your nipples pierced, sure you can. There is no absolute reason why you can’t. Just choose your provider well.
