IT depends on where the piercing is. Tongue - Ice and ice cold water. Do NOT eat any solid foods and talk as little as possible. Belly - Sea Salt works wonderfully. That and not touching the area. Wearing light and loose clothing, ice and washing the area with anti bacterial soap every night before bed. Also, At bedtime try to keep off of the peirced area as much as possible.
