depends where you piercing is
By that i guess you are asking how longs after the piercing do you have to wait?? If so, I was told 1 week before swimming in chlorinated swimming pools
Nope! Minimum 3 months. Most likely longer, though.
after a couple of monthes but i think you still have a small scar afterward
No more than 2-3 weeks. But, if you hit it or snag it of course it might get red but the constant discoloration shouldn't last long.
Cartilage!<3
Having a piercing on the side of your lip :3
Usually about 3 days for the discomfort to ease. If the piercing is still sore after a week (5 days) then you need to alter your aftercare routine. Go back and talk to your piercer for added guidance.
Never try that it is very very bad
Wait 2-3 months before submerging it in water. It isnt the chlorine that you should worry about. Water is FILTHY an all of those germs with a new piercing greatly increases the risk of infection
If its been swollen, discolored (red/purple), or itchy for more than 2-3 weeks. Or if the drainage from the piercing is a dark yellow/greenish color. It could just be irritated if its red and swollen. Go check with your piercer to be sure.
Well if you take it out you loose the piercing, it's that simple, so here's what you do. Get your folks to take you to the local body piercing studio and get a nostril or lip retainer. Talk to the piercer and explain the situation, the piercer (if they have the experience) can tailor a clear retainer for your ear lobe piercing. Whala you keep the piercing and the school is none the wiser and everybody is happy!!. Yes they will close if taken out for over 1 hour.
It sounds to me like your talking about a dermal or a horizontal navel piercing which is a surface piercing. But from the sound of it it's a dermal piercing because I've never seen a surface piercing with 3 balls unless there 3 different piercing in a row. I could help you more if I saw a picture of what your talking about.
