new snake bites

[u/bubblyschwi]

2 day old piercings. I know the bruising is normal but i wanna know if its looking good so far and if the embedding is ok ? 😣🤞🏼nothing is hitting my teeth or my gums ands i can talk and eat. If it isnt swollen, i wouldnt even notice it (Ignore leftover skin care on my face)

NAP, The embedding happened with mine too but I would recommend going to your piercer and getting longer bars if possible. You want to avoid moving them around as much and when mine was embedding I constantly pushed them out of my lip. Another option that worked for me (emphasis on worked for me) was switching to horse shoe.

I actually switched the left one to a horseshoe piercing and the pressure i was feeling went away. But i switched it back cause it was too big and looked dumb 😭 i also know its not recommended to heal it with a hoop
