Bridge Piercing Problem!

Saaron

I got my bridge pierced a year ago and for the last few weeks I've noticed it's become crooked, very often it bleeds and hurts. I'm pretty sure it's either migrating on one side or growing out. The other side is fine.

What I want to know is if I let it heal up would I be able to re-pierce it or would the scar tissue be a problem?

I absolutely love this piercing and would hate to not be able to get it done again

Ok, firstly take it to a piercer. They'll be able to tell you if it's migrating or infected straight away. But it sounds like it could be.
Is there any whiteish gunk coming out in the blood? That's a good sign of an infection.

Repiercing through scar tissue isn't much of a problem. Can hurt a bit more though. But The piercer will prob try an avoid it though.

When I get home to Dublin I might go get some advice.
Right now it's swollen a bit, and quite red. Not much white gunk. Mostly a tiny bit of blood.

I'm really tempted to take it out now just so I can let it heal and get it redone. It's also quite sore.

If you think there's any chance that it might be infected, DO NOT take it out or let it close up, as this would close any nastyness inside, whereas it can get out now with the holes from the piercing.
