Well the longer the jewellery is left out of the piercing the sooner it will close and shrink to be less noticable unless you had a serious issue with the piercing then it may take even longer. Once you have had a piercing for over a year it can take sevral months without jewellery in the piercing to shrink and become unnoticable, the piercing doesn't just close and heal up the body has to work in reverse of healing to close the piercing permanently and this takes time.
You should not make out until the piercing heals.
Cream
it does that before it heals. just like any other piercing.
yes. but not before the wound from the piercing heals.
A bump around your dimple piercing is the body guarding the piercing, the surrounding tissue toughens as the piercing heals. This will ease off as the piercing heals, ensure you are rinsing the piercing daily under running water (best done in the shower after shampoo and conditioner as these tend to irritate the piercing). Should you have serious concerns contact your body piercer and let him/her have a look at it.
It's the tongues version of a scab it will ease off as the piercing heals, relax.
No. I had one too when my lip piercing was still healing. It's scar tissue and will go away as the piercing heals.
Yes it is, it's a sign that the piercing is healing. yeah, its like a scab before a cut heals.
The body is guarding the tissue while the piercing is healing, this toughening will ease off as the piercing heals. Be sure to stay on your aftercare routine.
It depends on how fast your body heals, and how long you have had the piercing. The longer you have had the piercing, the longer it will take to close. This is true for all piercings.
Depends on how your body heals, what size the piercing is, and how old it is. Its really difficult to give you a definitive answer, sorry.
Depends on the age of the piercing, the gauge, and just how your body heals. Most do close but they leave scars.
