Question

If a woman has an earring in the upper part of her ear that should not be removed for a whole year, is it permissible to immerse with it?

Answer

Hello Rabbi,

It is not permissible to initially immerse with it.

One should find a way to remove it during immersion.

Shulchan Aruch, Yoreh De'ah, Siman 198, סעיף 1. One should not initially immerse even with something that does not constitute a barrier.
