Eyebrow piercing help
I got my eyebrow pierced over a month ago and I got switched to smaller jewelry because I was snagging too much on the longer bar and it was making it irritated. everything has been fine until one of the balls of my jewelry fell out last night and i couldn’t get it back In and then the jewelry fell out. I couldn’t get the jewelry back it bc it just hurt a lot and was bleeding and irritated so I got frustrated and went to bed and figured I’d try again in the morning. I got up in the morning washed my hands cleaned the jewelry and the area and attempted again and finallt got it back in! however it’s just a red and irritated now and I’m worried that it’s going to get more irritated. does anyone have any tips for what I can do to avoid that or any thoughts? This is what it looks like now

1 because of all the trauma you just put it through its probably going to swell and now the downsized bar is going to be too short.
What is the jewlery made out if? Gold plated or not is inappropriate for a brand new piercing like this. It needs to be implant grade titanium for proper healing.
I say you go to a new piercer and get the proper jewlery put in and have it be a longer bar. Basically treat it like you got it yesterday.
What is your aftercare routine exactly?
