I'd go for the one avoiding legal trouble.

Yeah...it's sad, but I think I'd trust the opinion of a piercing artist over a doctor when it came to a situation like this. Seriously. Piercers will tell it to you straight. One of my friends in college wanted to get his tongue pierced, but when he got to the tattoo parlor, the guy told my friend he wouldn't do it because of the positioning of a certain vein in his tongue that, if ruptured by piercing, could cause serious problems. I had never heard of that happening, but the piercing artist sounded pretty serious and told my friend that any other reputable place wouldn't do the piercing for him, either. My friend was really mad at first, but then he thought it was really cool that the guy wasn't just concerned about getting his money. My family's doctor, on the other hand, would've let my stepdad have a heart attack if it hadn't been for an internist he went to see.
