Is it okay to put ice on a new lip piercing?
I just got spiderbites yesterday and my lip is swollen and tender. Is it okay if i ice it to make the swelling go down?

Answers:

Absolutely, ibuprofen helps the swelling and pain also. In my experiences, it's helped the swelling more.



Yes it is but try not to put too much pressure on it. When I got my labret piercing I would get a glass of water with a ton of ice in it and swish the ice cold water around close to the piercing, that also helped.
