well i had my lip pierced 3 days ago now... ! had it done with a 10 mm bar which should have been fine according to matt @ tattoo uk who pierced me. andie had her tattoo redone
hmmm. well the next day it was throbbing and had swollen up, so I went back and Matt kindly exchanges it for a 12mm bar for free. I'm thinking, it'll be fine now
but .. the following day (yesterday) it has swollen so much it pulls the piercing back through my skin with me in severe pain. go back to see matt, his boss has been pissing himself laughing at his request for a 14 mm bar as it just wouldn't stop swelling !! lucky he's so friendly and doesnt charge for advice or upgrades
However, today everything is normal. It's not painful any more, the swelling is going down and its lookin good. will post photos when the swelling goes down
