Yes, ice and ibuprofen can help reduce swelling after a lip piercing. Ice provides localized cooling, which can minimize inflammation and numb discomfort, while ibuprofen is an anti-inflammatory medication that helps alleviate pain and swelling. However, it's important to follow proper aftercare instructions and consult with a professional if swelling persists or worsens. Always ensure that the ice is not applied directly to the skin and use a cloth barrier to prevent frostbite.

You have had Ice on your lip and taken ibuprofen to make the swelling go down its still swollen after being pierced almost a week what should you do?

Chances are really good that you are, eating, drinking, smoking and or using the wrong product for cleaning and caring for your lip piercing. Foods, beverages and some cleaning products can infact cause swelling of body piercings, this varies from person to person. What works for one person may not work for you. Over cleaning can also lead to swelling, your body needs to "do it's thing" in order to heal a piercing, over cleaning can actually irritate tissue that is trying to heal and promote swelling. Phone your Piercer or better yet go down and see him/her and be truthful when you talk to them, we can see through the lines of misinformation. If your piercer is good they will spend the time to help you out and fix what ever is wrong with the aftercare routeen. Good Luck

Can you remove a piercing early for work or sports?

You can but of course it can close pretty quickly. Also removing and reinserting jewelry frequently can really cause problems. You'll increase the risk of infection for one. Then you will really aggravate the piercing so it won't heal and might even reject, depending on where the piercing is. Try wearing a retainer instead. You can get some clear ones and flexible ones can be more comfortable. If you know you're going have to take it out for work/sports, your best choice is to not get it at all. It'll save you a lot of hassle
