    got a horizontal bar put in my eyebrow in november, no problems at all.
    It has been a bit swolen the last few weeks, just looking for any tips to heal the swelling. Would warm saltwater or solution be effective?

    thanx

    it should be a curved barbell in your eyebrow. Yeah boil up some water, put it in a mug add some sea salt, let it cool then with a piece of tissue or a cotton ball just dip it in the water then rest it on your eyebrow for a bit.
    take care not to get it caught on your bar though :D

    If its a horizontal surface piercing it should be a surface barbell, or at least PTFE. Cold compresses should bring down the swelling. Try not to do sss that hot on it as they will do nothing for the swelling. :)
