And for anyone checking my gallery, if you see this. Check my scraps.
I have lots of good stuff in thar.

I have the absolute worse infection in one of them. ;(
My lips hurt so bad.
And I cannot remove the piercing that is in them.
I'm going to go to a piercing shop sometime today or tommorow to see if they can help me remove it.
I'm going to have to be on painkillers though. I can't eat or have anything touch my lips without me screaming/crying.


Ow. D:

And how does that pain smiley represent pain?
Srsly?

-edit-


This is really here because I don't want to have to have this in a txt file and look for each time someone asks. For those who care or heard about my lip infection. I got my ring out.

And because I'm lazy. So here.


I have snakebites, first off. Have had them for roughly seven-eight months now.
My left one, where I have a ring instead of a stud got "infected".

Turned out it was infection at all. The ring had "migrated" through my lip. The ring I used was so small and generic. It was a ring with two balls on the end of each, I lost the ball to one, and I don't have the money to get another, so I just pushed the part that didn't have a ball to the one that did. I hope that makes sense. And I had it like that for at least two months. He told me it took a long time for it to rip through the skin and when it hit a capillary/ vein it started hurting unbearably. I now have a roughly 5mm scar/hole from where the hole INSIDE my lip is supposed to be to the right edge of where my lip starts. Because I couldn't eat, I could barely talk, nothing could touch my lips or rip because I would start to tense up and cry because it hurt so bad. Anyway, he was going to take it out for free. Then the guy took me to a room, and a pull apart tool thing, and took it out. I had to bite on a folded piece of paper towel and hold my friends hand. And jesus christ did I scream and whimper as he was just pulling it apart. After he did that he waited for it to stop hurting and me to stop hyperventilating. It took a few minutes, then he was telling me he's gonna take it out. He pulled the ring out and almost a few minutes after I felt immediately better. I was still shaking horribly for at least fifteen minutes afterward. He just continued talking to me about it. I then gave him a 40 dollar tip because I thought he deserved it.

That was a few days ago, now it feels fine.
