Question:

Lip piercing -chance of infection if I...?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

I got my lip pierced (underage, but at a professional studio) about a month ago and I managed to hide it quite well from my mum - I would unscrew the labret stud when I was around her, and suck the stick in slightly so that it was neither visible nor out of the hole completely. I would then direct it back into the hole using my tongue. However, feeling guilty, I decided to tell her two weeks after I had got it done...she went MENTAL and made me take it out. I know it sounds stupid, but I am really missing it and am desperate to get it done again, but if I got it done and kept on doing what I did previously to hide it, would it be likely to get infected (even though it didn't last time)?

Thanks.

  1. Yes, you're touching it too much


  2. You should have just used a clear retainer.

    And about re-piercing, if you had it done again, don't do what you were doing before, use a clear retainer.  

  3. i doubt itll get infected .just do what u did last time and make sure you keep it clean of course.

    but itd be better if u  go to hot topic(or another place that sells piercing stuff) and buy these clear nose stud looking things and put them on, they stay on and you dont have to mess with them as much.

    you SHOULD get it done again...

  4. if you want to do it again and use that method of hiding it from your mum just make sure to rinse your mouth with listerine or some sort of mouth disinfectant because thats what your meant to use with all oral peircing to kill infection if it occurs or if you eat something and leave it. or in your case suck it out and in again.

  5. probably not, but piercing through the scar tissue is gonna hurt worse than just piercing through the lip the first time.

  6. nononon

  7. Im not sure.

    Maybe you should talk to your mum and try and convice her to let you have it done so you dont need to keep hiding it!!!
