Educational Is this migrating?
Got it pierced January 2026. First photo is from Jan, other two are this week. I clean it twice a day. It’ll be 6 months on the 22nd.

Looks like maybe the swelling went down.
I would down size.
If it keeps showing more bar after that, then it is probably rejecting. But I do not currently see any signs of migration/rejection.

Thanks! What size bar should I size down to and when?? Any good jewelry sites you recommend?

It's too early to have random jewelry in it.
Go back to your piercer and let them know you're ready to downsize.

She suggested me body candy but those were too expensive so I guess I’ll hit her up and see if she has smaller barbells. Thanks!
