I have had my piercing for about 4 months bow and it still hurts to sleep on it and to touch it…. I'm getting tired of this and I was wondering if I should do something different besides cleaning with the cleaner that they give you….. I thought if I tried to change the earing that the pain would stop but it didn't help….. I clean it well everyday… but it didn't help at all…. UGH! Can some help me please?

Go see a doctor as you may have an infection there causing all the pain as this is definitely not healing up properly and you may be advised to just remove the ring and keep it out to let your area heal.

After that amount of time if it is not healed completely yet and still causes you that much pain, I strongly recommend you consult your doctor.

Well my biggest suggestion is to just keep cleaning it, only use higher quality jewellery, and try not to have things such as over the head headphones, tight hats, cell phones, or halmets pressed against it for to long. If this is really beginning to bother you, wait another week or so and consult your doctor. Things will work out. Chin Up!
