God damn it! i had to take out my lipring, i woke up the other day and my lip was the size if a golf ball. FUCK ME it realy hurt taking that fucker out
infected piercings are the worst! i had a tragic Tragus about 4 months ago...that damn thing swelled up so huge it blocked off the entire passage way to my ear canal! i was deaf for like 2 days until i finally developed the smarts to go to the doc and get the ring taken off....getting shots in an abcess blows ass! the pain the hospital put me in was worse then childbirth.
hope you can get it re-done soon.
