hi sorry if this has been covered before i tried a search but didnt turn up anything im new to piercings and got my eyebrow piercing last week 2 days after a bruise formed which i ignored thought was most probably from clamp but it seems to have worsened and is very red like there is alot of blood under the surface its just under my eyebrow and between my eyelid also directly below piercing it is very yellow so far my piercing seems fine no visiable infection? any help can possible upload pics if required

Pics would help, could be a blood bubble, could be a keloid.
it could just be a bruise, is it sore to the touch?
Are you salt soaking it?

If it doesnt calm down a bit by the end of the week go to your local piercing studio.
just baby it and with any luck it'l be hunky dory

Mine was way worse when i got it done. I had a full black eye, people in work thought i got punched. It went away after about 2 weeks, nowhere to upload a pic though

Looks grand. Prob just a result of pressure applied while piercing. I recommend Arnica or maybe some vit E.

here's a public link to my bruise after two days. It's funny, last time I had this piercing I didn't bruise at all. I was told that this mostly only happens to guys who get pierced with anything larger than a 16 gauge. These piercings were with a 14 (two sizes larger).

yeah- I only took them out last time because they were job-stoppers. I've never had any rejection problems.
