    Hi all, I got my neck re pierced over a month ago. Last time I had it for a year without problems but a solid round lump has formed around the bar this time and is sore to touch. No puss is coming out and I cleaned it well and still do.
    Any ideas what it could be and what to do on it?
    Thanks

    Ask your piercer.

    But other than that, I would do a long soak (30 minutes) in a bath.

    Was it pierced in the same holes it originally was??
    I had same problem. Basically a scar that ended up re opened but not exactly the same pattern as it originally was done. It'll be sore for a while mate.

    Probably a keloid, have you got a picture?

    Regardless if it looks the same or not, I would still recommend you go to your piercer and just ask. (If it is, asprin paste can help get rid of it)
