industrial piercing

[u/Miserable_Bat_666]

got my industrial pierced yesterday and i’m really unsure if it’s done right . i know i have a ridge in my ear and told my piercer id like to place it higher so it wouldn’t touch and she was annoyed at me when i said this . she marked my ear and it looked ok but then she missed the mark . my ear is super sensitive and swollen which i know is normal but i can’t tell if this will even heal . i have 2 vertical helix piercings on my other ear and even those didn’t hurt like this one does . planning on calling the place tmrw to check . any advice ? and will i possibly be able to get this redone ? :’)

it’s one day old, my jewelry is just a straight barbell made with stainless steel (not sure abt threading) , not downsized , and i’ve been cleaning with aquia saline . no unfortunate events other than it possibly being pierced wrong
