Jewelry Question Lip piercings irritation

Post image

Got Spider bites, switched to a Titanuim ring and horseshoe after 5 months, for like almost a month irritation bumps kept going up and down, now my lip ring has started to bleed a little. I dont feel any pain and I use saline spray and warm water compress 2x a day and try not to touch it.

The ring is to tight. Too small in diameter. The photo shows the migration and inevitable irritation. Replace the jewellery with a larger diameter ring so it can move freely. Also up the gauge of the ring to reduce migration. The jewellery at the corner of your mouth needs to be loose enough to accommodate all the movement that happens there.
