medusa piercing sinking into lip

Up to you if you want to try it. You can usually treat an infected lip piercing at home. 4 A MINUTE I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE W/THIS PROBLEM, SINCE FINDING ANSWERS WAS HARD. Thanks.Ok so I had this problem and my first guess was dead skin. I got my lip done Nov 10th, 2011 and i thought it was doing really well. Is there anything I can do for that? I’m gonna try switching to a ring and hope it goes away. Most likely it is scar tissue, and the swelling should subside in time.

I prefer rings so this is an annoying issue.I’m going to copy what so many people have said. (Two “monroe” piercings on either side above the top of my lip.

!And I always suggest surgical steel for a new piercing.

The actual piercing process will involve the piercer sanitizing the area to be pierced, and the cleaning substance may sting for a few seconds. then i changed the bar right away, cleaned it and gargled salt water daily, and it should go away soon. After about a few days, I bought a pair of smaller rings. From what i read, it’s not infected but it just happens to be excess scar tissue forming and not allowing the piercing to fully heal. (Two weeks later and I’m still fine.) hopefully it goes away soon. You might ask them how much they charge and how much experience they have in the field.

A medusa piercing would be found on the flesh just above your lip and below your nose. I had my piercing redone a month ago and again scar tissue has started to form. After a while, the size of the white ball tripled. it also bleeds if i move it. However, before you consider getting this piercing done, you should know what to look for in a good piercer. Do not take risks with your health for cosmetic reasons.Hi I’ve had my spider bites done for a while now and I have changed to rings and the ring on the right side keeps cutting into my lip and its painful when it does so a have to take it out and put a labret in and each time I put it back in it happens any advice. thanks for everyones help!OMG I WOKE UP TRYING TO GOOGLE ANSWERS AND FINALLY I FOUND EM. we will see. Eventually it will stop and it won’t come back anymore.My pierced cut that piece of skin off my medusa after about 2 months.Hi. It will never happen if you have a ring in so that’s one way to sort it. She cut it off with pliers and I almost cried. I am introducing a new product for oral piercings! It’s been happening for a few months now, and I’ve tried ignoring it and leaving it alone, and mouthwash and cleaning it. I then had to take it out for my old job (for roughly 3-4 months).

The labret stud I prefer is quite short and therefore tight (ish) and it leaves a small indent on my inner lip but it is comfortable to wear and having it short means it never catches on my teeth (when I first got it done I used to bite my bar by accident while eating, really sore) I’ve just today changed back to this labret from a ring I’ve had in for months in the hope that this lump’ll go away. I got my lip pierced on Feb. 15th and about 4 days ago the little hard white bump popped up. Try to avoid it before it happens.

!I actually had to pop mine I got it when I got my Monroe and I had to take it off in order for it to heal :/I have snakebites that I did myself when I was 16. I can assure you it went away and there is absolutely nothing left behind! I also do not think this occurs due to quality of jewelry, also because the problem has resolved itself on some folks who have not changed their jewelry (length or material wise) I think it being irritated chemically is on the right track, but my assumption has always been this is a result of food particles becoming lodged in your piercing, and you body reacting trying to push them out.you guys i busted my lip pretty bad about a week ago , i immidietly went to the emergency room and they gave me stitchesThis exact problem happened to me after having my lip pierced for about a month with no other problems, this just sprung up overnight. Be sure you wash your hands BEFORE touching your piercing. or jus take it out? I took them and my tweezers and sterilized the fuck out of them (soap and water, then rubbing alcohol, then boiling).
