    you may need to go to your GP for some antibiotic, in the meantime it may help to use a little salt water? and analgesics!

    I would take it out...

    I've never had one, but I've had infected piercings before, and this doesn't sound too pretty. But look for more advice from people who have had that kind of piercing done specifically and would know for sure what they were talking about.

    take it out, same thing happened my friend and when she went to the doc, he said take it out. when its healed you can get it done again, or just get the other one done instead. maybe go to a different piercer. can i ask, did it hurt getting it done? im mad to do it.

    See a doctor, quick smart. If that's too expensive, take the darned thing out. If we were meant to have such piercings, we would have been born with them!
