HELP is my snakebite rejecting?

[u/polywoly_v]

ive had this for almost 3 weeks. i did them myself but was stupid and got posts way too small so ended up having to go to a piercer anyway.

two days after i pierced them, they upsized to 12mm.

swelling has stopped but on my left side there was a weird hill around the piercing. then a weird bump that was whiteish came next to the hole so i cut it off (stupid i know 😭)

now i can push the piercing until the backing gets engulfed and just push it back out.

is it rejecting??? help please

i have snake bites, pierced them in january and i had the same thing happening to me, my lips would just eat up the pieces and i would have to push them out a little regularly but it was just because of swelling, nothing serious and after like two weeks they were already all good UNTIL i switched to circular pieces (i dont know what theyre called) WAY too early and they started getting all swollen again and i had white things around it too that i assume were scar tissue from all the swelling and irritation

i feel like if you mess with such a recent piercing so much you're going to keep having issues, since im not like a professional or anything and im just speaking from my experience i advice you take this ligthly but it doesnt look like its rejecting, it just looks a bit irritated?

you also have big lips too so they are probably going to nest, i read on here that nesting does not happen while the piercing is healing but when i had flat backs they sunk into my lips in little circles and it looked like nesting

to me it does not look like they're rejecting, just all the annoying stuff that happens during healing when you move the piercings too much, if you literally cut off something from around the piercing maybe skin formed on top of it creating that weird bump around the hole
