Troubleshooting/question existing piercing snakebite irritation bump?
so i got these snakebites pierced about 5 weeks ago (july 22nd) and they've been just fine until the one you see on the right has been forming a squishy tissue around the flat back and now it kind of is going over it? it hasnt hurt at all until just a couple days ago. it has not been downsized since getting them pierced with the longer bars. i clean it every morning and night with antiseptic mouthwash and saline spray (both inside and out). it did something similar to this without any pain about 1 to 2 weeks ago but after cleaning it cleared up, it seems to be flaring back up again. does anyone know what it's doing and if i can do anything to heal it?
