So I pierced my lip last night, Using Rubbing Alcohol, a 16g Tri-Beveled Hollow Tip Needle, and a Piercing Clamp. It was a tad bit swollen when I went to be bed last night but I did clean it several time before I fell asleep. When I woke up this morning it was a little more swollen. This not my first lip piercing. Just wanted to know how soon the swelling should go down? And what I can use to clean the inside of it, being that I'm lacking sea salt.

If this isn't your first lip piercing, did you do the first one yourself or was it professionally done?. Maybe you shouldn't have done that by yourself because now you're looking at a higher risk of infection... Your best bet is to go get a doctor to make sure you haven't acquired an infection. If you have, you need to get that taken care of, let the hole close, and never pierce yourself again.
