Will it heal on its own or do I see a dR
I got a Monroe piercing Saturday night around 8. By Monday morning it was abnormally swollen, hot to the touch, throbbing, very painful. I went to the shop they said it definitely needed to come out because it was infected. Some discharge when removed. The next morning the swelling was considerably better however the pain is still severe and on the outside as well as hot and throbbing. You can feel there is a hard knot of infection. I am having some tenderness outside the swollen area.
