does getting your lip pierced hurt?

You cant really numb it. Its so quick that I dont think you have anything to worry about.As a piercer, I dont think people find it one of the most painful piercings.Most people say that the clamp hurts the worst, and that only feels like a little pinch.But everybody's pain tolarance is unique. \nThe only numbing cream that is available cant be used near the mouth.(so its ok for ears,nipples and navels-but not oral stuff)\nHeres a tip. When you get pierced, they should tell you to rinse your mouth out with an alcoholic based mouthwash, If you do it for a long time ( like 2 minuites) most people say it numbs the inside of their mouth.

It is the least painful piercing you can get, for what that is worth. It will swell moderately for a few days and be sore. Eating may be painful until the swelling and sensitivity go down. You may need to re-learn how to eat certain foods. You also have to be very careful of infection for the first few weeks, when you eat, food can become lodged in the hole and if it stays can get pretty nasty. Also, don't buy metal barbells until you are very accustomed to your piercing. For some time you will have a tendency to accidentally bite on the bar and if you have metal ends and not plastic you can chip your teeth. Also, body jewelry is expensive so expect to spend some money if you swallow your jewelry (which can happen often if you do not occasionally check that the ball is snugly screwed on). Your sensitivity to hot and cold may increase temporarily. As for sex, be careful...that's all I'll say about that.\n\nMost importantly: ONLY BE PIERCED BY A PROFESSIONAL. There is a large vein which runs through the center of the tounge and if this is hit you will bleed for a freakishly long time.

I have my lip pierced. Hurt eh? Lol. Anywho...\n\n-Rinse with alcohol free mouthwash after EVERYTHING that goes into your mouth such as food, drinks and after every cigarette!! Except water.. water doesn't mater.\n\n-No kissing or any oral sex for 3-4 weeks.\n\n-Clean it twice a day with antibacterial soap. Take a q-tip and rub the soap around it, then move the ring side to side and in and out. Make sure your hands are clean before you do this. Grab a cup and dump water over it to get rid of the soap. (A good idea when you wash your hands before you do it is to dry them with paper towel instead of a cloth towel becuase cloth towels tend to hold more bacteria.)\n\n-If it gets crusty, gently remove the crust from your jewelry with a disposable, one-use product such as a tissue, cotton-ball, swab, or square. (Not a hand/cloth towel!)\n\n-Don't ever touch it for any reason before its healed if your hands are not clean. Don;t let your friends touch it either. Alot of my friend tryed to do this and I has to slap their hands away lol.\n\nOne last thing, don't drink any alcohol untill its healed! Booze is VERY bad for an oral piercing!\n\nBest of luck! :)

It could be the beginning of a keloid, which is a scarring and one of the dangers of piercings. Keloids can get quite large, so better get it checked.

All piercings hurt. the hurt factor is what differs in piercings. you can die, of course... that is if the wound get infected. i suggest you have a doctor do the piercing and it won't go hairless since you're piercing the skin above and under the brow, not the scalp.\n\nthankies!!

The risks are very high. If you hit a nerve(  your face is full of them) you could cause serious and permanent damage! Your mouth is of course full of bacteria, too, so your risk for infection is huge. The stakes are high even having it done professionally; but if you must have your lip pierced, go to a professional with a good reputation.

No, it doesn't hurt at all actually. I didn't even feel a sting like someone else mentioned...All I felt was pressure. I've had my nostril pierced for a lil' over 2 yrs. now....\n\nI was extremely nervous before I went because I had heard stories about how it makes your eyes water it hurts so bad, & how much it can bleed...Needless to say neither of those happened to me...It bled just a tiny bit just around the piercing itself, but the piercer cleaned it up & I was good to go...\n\nClean it with Dial antibaterial soap, and/or sea salt soaks, & you'll be fine...It honestly hurts worse to get your ears pierced than your nostril...Good luck!!

as long as you look presentable, then it shouldnt be a problem.  i have seen women going on job interviews with their eyebrows pierced as well as their tongue.  good luck

If you pop it, it will feel raw (and feel weird) for a day or two, then be fine. If you don't then it'll take longer, but your finger won't have a small scar and it'll be better in the long run.

I got my cartilage peirced, and it didn't hurt. However, it's different for different people. Also, it might hurt on one ear and not the other: My mom's left ear didn't hurt but her right one stung like h***!\nU just can't know until u try.

I have it done, and I can tell you that it is EXTREMELY easy to get off....but it is not the same for everyone.  If you are considering getting pierced, you should definitely make sure you go to a safe, reputable piercing facility with highly experienced professionals no matter what piercing you get.  And remember that no matter what you are having done there are always risks as well as benefits!

It's quite common for piercings to get infected.  I'd say you're definitely suffering from an infection.  Don't get overly anxious about it, but do definitely have it checked out.

It's not really that exciting of a piercing, and depending on your ta-ta's size, you may not have a choice as to what kind of ring you put in it. I have large ones, so I had posts similar to those used in the tongue. Plus, because something is always rubbing against it, it gets infected easily. I would not recommend it. I had to take mine out for surgery, and I really didn't miss them.\nI also had a below the belt piercing, and those are hot, but if you are pierced to close to a nerve you get that pain-pleasure thing, which isn't always nice. Good luck!

well think about it! biting your touge hurts right now imagine sticking a neddle thorugh it, yeah im will to bet it will hurt.   However fortunetly they give you painkillers so it tends not to hurt as much.\n\nBut just rememebr getting your tounge perced kills off many many tastebuds on your tounge and you cannot talk for like 2 days until the swelling goes down.
