What process does a monroe piercing go through to heal?

Question

I got my monroe pierced about 3 weeks ago, and I'm not sure if it is infected or just doing the normal healing process. It is red around the outside of the piercing and yellow-looking discharge comes out of it. I have to clean the dry hard stuff off it every day. Im sorry if this sounds gross ): anyone else have there monroe pierced and know whats up? should i go get it checked??

Answer 1

No this is fine. The redness is from moving it in and out, try to limit it and dont play with it.

The crusties are lmyph dried and you should use a q-tip and antibacerical soap/warm water to clean it off.

Then you should soak/ or spray, soak is better and more effective to the piercing, with a sea salt solution or soak.

It should go down within a week.

If it is sore, puffy, discharge is a greenish and smells go get it checked out.
