Should an industrial piercing hurt to the point of tears 3 days after piercing if one has a high pain tolerance?

I got an industrial about 3 months ago. It was sore afterwards, I didn't want to touch it... but it wasn't THAT painful. It took about 3 weeks to heal, so i suggest that if it is still hurting and very painful still, go back to your piercer and ask them whats up. You can always call them before that to ask any questions, piercers are there to help. An Industrial is going to hurt quite a bit after its pierced, it will throb and ache for quite some time, but if its reducing you to tears that can indicate that perhaps it was incorrectly placed or infection. Either ring up your Piercer, or get a doctor to have a look at it.
