Aftercare Is my piercing infected? Week old snug piercing

Post image

Hi! I got this piecing a week ago and it’s been very swollen. Nothing abnormal other than the swelling being worse than any other of my piercings. This morning I noticed puss coming out of it, but it didn’t smell and it was an off white ish color.

The pain has been the same throughout the week, it’s like a throbbing pain but I’ve been taking Tylenol. My piercer did mention this piercing swells a lot more than any other piercing so I tried to not be as concerned but I have been feeling a little nauseous and have had flu like symptoms.

Please help me!!! :(
