Lip piercing problems HELP!!?

I pierced my lip during summer nd it was fine up until a week ago where it was irritated but now it itches and hurts to touch and if I try to move it around its not smooth and its hard to put back in if I take it out. I wear a bcr in it and clean it pretty often. Is it infected?? How do I make it better??

    If it was during summer it should be healed by now and the chances of infection are SLIM unless you tugged it and bled. If that's the case then yes it could be infected. You could also possible be like me, allergic to the fake metal lip rings/bullets. Every now and again mine gets really itchy and a little red because I can't manage to find lip rings made of white gold (silver irritates my lip and ears).

    Now since you say "I pierced my lip-" I'm going to assume that literally, YOU did it. Which in that case you did it wrong (and by wrong I mean not by a professional) and you should go get it checked out by one.
