Lip piercing: Only comfortable in one position?


Question Posted Monday October 5 2009, 10:32 pm

I just got my lip pierced last monday and it doesn't really hurt but when i move it around (it's a hoop) it can be really uncomfortable until i move it back to where it was. the outside of it pretty much just scabs, it gets a little bit of puss but not much. The inside gets the white goop though and i think that's normal but the inside is really soar. The outside is soar too but not horribly. is this normal or not? i'm cleaning it with sea salt about 5 times a day. Thanks!

Why the hell are you even touching it? You're not supposed to touch a new lip piercing because your hand has germs & can get your piercing infected. When you touch your piercing, you're always supposed to clean it after. 5 times a day is not enough. Everytime something touches it, clean it. Make sure you're cleaning it well. Use a Q-Tip to get the goop & puss & crusty things off, and then use the sea salt to cleanse it. And always rinse your mouth out with mouthwash when cleaning.

Don't touch it anymore until it's healed. The only reason you should be touching it is to clean it. You're going to prolong the healing process if you keep this up.

Edit:

Yup, an idiot who knows what the fuck she's talking about. I've had my lip pierced for over a year. You've had yours pierced for a week and a half. Who do you think knows more about this when it comes down to the two of us? Oh, right. Congratulations coming off as a complete and utter troglodyte.

You had a piece of metal pierce through your lip. Of course it's going to hunt until it's healed, which can take up to eight weeks. Be patient. Your piercer should have told you all about this.
