So, I've had it pierced for about 1 year 4 months now, but on tuesday night, the ball came off it and it just wouldnt stay in -_-' So I took it out and left it, but now I cant get it back in at all, I've tried using soap tried pushing it in full force several times, but it just wont budge.

I really don't wanna have to get rid of it/go get it re pierced, so any ideas on how to get it back in? :) Surely it won't have healed completely in less than two days?:confused:

Cheers :thumbsup:

Do you have a thinner bar/hoop? It might help to initially get a smaller one in and then in a few days retry the previous one you had that you can't get in now. This is the method I used when I had a similar problem.

Also, don't use soap. It's not healthy for the piercing, especially if you do manage to get it in - the soap will be sitting inside the hole, potentially for a long time. Yuck.

Does it hurt to push it in? Previous idea seems best - try a smaller bar.

I didnt have a smaller hoop/bar thing so I couldnt try that :thumbsdown: And, nah it didnt really hurt that much. Ended up going back to the place where I got it done, she tried to put it back in, with a thick bar, then a really small one, no luck. So, she said come back in 6 weeks when its properly healed and she'll re-pierce it for me then for free :D

Thanks anyways guys :thumbsup:

That'll probably be better anyway. If you can get her to re-pierce it underneath the old scar tissue, it won;t grow out :thumbsup:
