It sounds like it healed around it. It's going to hurt like a b-tch, but you're either going to have to forcefully pull it out, or go to a piercer for help, and they're likely not going to be very happy with you, and may not even help you since you didn't follow piercing protocol. You could try to put some A&D ointment around the area to lube it up.. that might make it easier to pull out. And then you'll have to stretch the hole again by getting small gauge lip rings, starting from 20 or 18 gauge, and then you can go up to 16 gauge if you'd like, but gauge slowly, maybe once a week or even up to once a month. Be careful not to get it infected. Don't over wash it, but once or twice a day, rinse it with a salt water solution - it's more gentle than anti-bacterial soap and is less likely to dry it out.
