I wanna get a nipple piercing. I did some research and from it says that it can cause HIV and Hepatitis B. How can I prevent getting them? And does it always cause that?

Dr. Karim Farah Pulmonology
hepatitis B&C and HIV are transmitted with contaminated and unsterilized equipments
if the place you are having your piercing at is clean and he/she sterilize the instruments before and after using them then there is no risk.
just make sure the equipments are clean and sterilized BEFORE having the piercing
