Infected industrial?

So I got the industrial almost a week ago. It has been fine for the first couple days. But in the past 2 days, it looks all puffy and swollen. And I was looking at my neck (the same side as the ear I did it in) and I started to feel a bump. Both have...

been painful. Is this normal?

have you been cleaning it regularly? Peircings take a while to heal so the pain you feel now could be the skin around the holes closing on the barbell. You should put some peroxide on it to help fight off any infection that might be festering inside there. If nothing else helps go to a doctor. They will usually be able to see what's wrong. I know when I got my nose ring it was fine for a few days but then my body just rejected it completely and it came out. It was very itchy and hurt SO badly. I had to go back to get it repierced. It turns out that the guy didn't pierce it straight and that just added to the pain on my body rejecting the ring. Make sure the person who peirced your ear did it properly. You could even go back to the place you got it done and see what they think. If they are professionals (which I hope they were) then they would know how to treat it. If you had a friend do it for you in the bathroom or something then you could be screwed. just kidding. Goodluck.
