I took the jewelry out and can't get it back in, what do I do?

Well, first off I never charge to change jewelry or sterilize jewelry. Whenever you are nervous or unsure, see your piercer.

Often times, even with well healed piercings it can be difficult to change jewelry, Especially if the jewelry is of a different type or size. Since it doesn't cost anything to have an expert do it why take chances. The biggest thing is that if you can't get the jewelry back in, don't panic or try to force the jewelry in because that may cause damage to the piercing.

Some times even when the jewelry has been removed for a couple of days it can be reinserted using a taper pin.
