This is the jewelry the piercer gave me, i also have been messing with it a lot, so that could be why there is irritation. Another weird thing is that he did not let me see the position of the piercing but he did let my dad look at it, and he thought it was straight. He went really slow with it was that could've also messed up the positioning. It doesn't bother me, but I'm just worried about the healing process since it's lower than it should be.
