I just recently got it pierced and it looks normal and everything with it being swollen, and i do clean it twice everyday but i think the piercing is too small cause i pushed the piercing up to see what it looks like under the flatback and i see that it's starting to dig into my skin just a bit. Is this normal to see during the time it is swollen or should i go back to my piercer and change it?

How much does it hurt to get your lip pierced if you already have three tattoos and dont mind the pain?

If you didnt react too badly to the tattoos, the lip piercing shouldn't bother you too much. Most people say it feels like a pinch. Keep in mind, the worst part of any piercing is not actually the piercing itself, its the healing. Your lip will swell, it will be red, and it will be tender and uncomfortable. If you can handle that, then you should be ok.

No it isnt. Petroleum jelly is too thick and doesn't let your piercing breathe properly.


Is it normal for your lip piercing to bleed heavy hours after getting it?

Were you playing with it? You might have irritated it and opened the wound pretty badly, causing it to bleed heavily, either that, or they used a piercing needle gauge fairly too large for your lip piercing. I've experience piercing people with a piercing needle that's 2 gauges bigger, (For example, a lip piercing is 16g, I've pierce it with a 12gauge once) and it didn't bleed too bad, it bled for about 5-10 minutes. It shouldnt be bleeding heavily at all. Especially not for hours after getting it pierced. Go see a doctor as soon as possible before you lose too much blood

Infection is always a risk with any piercing. The lip area has no nerve endings to damage so is risk free there. If the piercing is too low, it can cause gum decay.
