What do you do if your lip piercing has a bump right next to it?

Try to stick it back in as quickly as possible. If it hits the floor rinse it first. If it's fairly recent it will hurt, and sticking it back in will prolong the healing time, but it's better than having the piercing seal up.

Get a second opinion from a different piercer. It sounds like whoever did it may have used a bar too short, if a new piercing doesn't have enough room to move around it can become embedded. It sucks having to have a larger piercing in your mouth but that's how it's done and anyone who performs an oral piercing and uses a short bar doesn't know what they're doing. If you have a long bar in and the skin is STILL growing over it, this could be a serious problem and I'd go see a doctor about it. (rejection in lip piercings happens towards the lip, not out away from the face)
It is also worth noting that lip piercings are one of a few that commonly "nest" meaning that the jewelry will press into the softer tissue (the inside of your lip in this case) and leave a small, temporary indention that the back rests inside of when you wear jewelry. If the skin is not folding or growing over the back of the stud, it doesn't get any worse with time, and there isn't any undue discomfort or pain, it is likely just doing this and is nothing to be alarmed about. If it does worsen or causes pain or discomfort, seek advice from a different, more qualified piercer, as this one's advice to "just keep popping it out" sounds like they have no clue what they're talking about.

Tongue piercing are also position so as not to rub on your teeth/gums too much so if your is visibly crooked, it probably isnt in a good placement for your teeth/gums. Just get it redone :)

Looks like a whithead most of the time.. It is important to pop and drain immediately as soon as it comes up. Then clean with antibacterial soap thoroughly. It may come back the next day, if so, repeat popping and cleaning. If you do not get it out immediately it will harden and itwill never go away.

Actually check it is crooked. The face isn't symmetrical. I recently had my second lot of snake bites done essentially shark bites but one of them looks a little off. But on closer inspection it's actually my lip line that throws its off. If it is off its only off by the thickness of a hair. If it is too noticeable then take it out, let it heal and get it re done. It's your body, do what you think is best.

Where on your lip do you pierce to get spiderbite piercings without piercing too far up or down on your lip?
You should go about 1/4 of an inch from the corner of your bottom lip on either side you wanted the piercing on. Then just a few centimeters from the lip itself. After piercing one whole, get the ring in before you try the next one. I advise you wait till the first one heals before trying to pierce the second hole. Which is suppose to be right next to the first. Make sure you align then right or it'll look funky.

Two lower lip piercings, usually one of the left and one on the right so it looks like snake bites/fangs. Google image to see pics snake bites are lip piercings.

Snake bites are about a cm below your lip while a normal lip piercing is right up against your lip.
