Numbness and occassional sharp shooting pains are generally the symptoms of a severed nerve. You should know however that there are no nerves in your lip that will cause you to lose total sensation in your lip or even cause prolonged issues. If it doesn't grow back another nerve will grow in it's place and you will still have the feeling in your lip, it may be a bit more subdued, but nothing horrible. Really the only nerve close to your lip that could cause serious issues is in your jaw bone, it supplies all the other little nerves to your cheeks, mouth, lips, chin, and teeth so if you are experiencing total numbness think about dental work as well, contact your piercer, and then follow their advice.

Some say its about the same as popping a pimple, but it varies from people, also some times the piercing artist goes from the inside of your mouth, some times they go from the outside and i have heard they have different levels of pain, i got mine from the out side and i have heard that the out side, in hurts more.
