Infected monroe piercing

My monore is infected I got ride of most of it but were the ball contact my outer lip is red and wound like and it has a nasty discharge!!
Any adive is welocmed please

firstly what is a monore???

its the pricing above your lip like a beaty mole
ya know what im talkin about??

oooh ok I have no experience with this kinda piercing but I could suggest a few things anyways

1) clean your hands always before dealing with wounds to prevent germs from spreading from your hands to your cut and making things worse
2) clean the infected area with antibacterial or castile soap
3) apply an ointment such as Neosporin, Bacitracin, Triple Antibiotic to your jewellery and infected area (small amount)
4) after about 2 days stop the ointment and keep the area clean and dry

hope this helps in some way

I had mine pierced but I took it out.. Clean it with qtip and but h2ocean from a piercing place.. Keep makeup away from it and in time in should heal.

well I have 2 of them!
okay, how long ago did you get it?
because this might just be your bodys way of cleaning and healing the area.
puss is normal, thats there to help prevent and fight off inferction
are you cleaning it? if not you should start to
also go to the place wree you got it peirced and ask them, because its hard to tell an infection without looking at it.
any more questions, jusk ask!

ahh this worries me because I am interested in getting a monroe...but I def dont want it to get infected . thats my worst fearr!! xx

Alright, well I guess I'm in the same boat as you. I have four other piercings besides my monroe, none of them gave me this type of problem expect my lip piercings. Only because mouth piercings heal different than actual skin.
Well, here are my symptoms. I have red outside, [obviously] I have white skin on the outside, & it's painful, lols. Sounds normal, right? Well this is what catches you off guard. The ball is sinking in my face where I can't even remove the ball. It's horrible. I work in a body jewlery store, so I have a longer bar, yet, I can't switch it out if my monroe is stuck in my face! Lols.
Help muuchh?

I had mine done not long ago no pain at all use 1 part Biotene (From walmart) and one part water to clean the outside for gods sake don't use alcohol or mouthwash or anything with a lot of alcohol it HURTS

I just got my monroe done 3 days ago and where the ball is has sunk in my face which worried me as you can guess so I took a trip to the place where I got it done at and had them look at it and she said it was complely normal to have swelling and reddness and for it to hurt just make sure you can see both sides of the bar, and for swelling use midol or aleve either one will help prevent swelling. she said in a few days or so the nasty goo should be gone... also for the people who are thinking about getting the monroe done make sure that you understand that when you do get it done it will irratate the gum where the bar ends, I didnt even think about it... tho I have no regrets I know it will look GREAT when it is finally better and healthy

I have just had mine pierced 2 days ago, and it looked to be settleing down quite nicely but this morning I woke up to the most swolen lip... and im sure the bar is too small. its not painful but looks quite sore and unpleasant. im from the uk and have looked through a lot of these solutions most of wich I cannot get hold of over here. at the moment im cleaning it twice a day on the outside with salt and water. and cleaining the inside with mouthwash as often as I can. will the redness go down eventually?? and if so how long am I going to have to put up with the redness and swelling??
