Help Changing a Monroe Piercing?

Question

My monroe is totally healed, and I just bought new jewelry today to change out the original - but I'm having some problems. I'm unable to unscrew the jewel from the labret!

Anyone have some helpful tips to getting it off?

Thanks!

Answer 1

for the first change of jewelry, you should always go to the piercer. lots of people are unable to change it fast enough or well enough and the hole either a) closes up or b) gets irritated and you'll have to start the healing process all over again.
