You should never just %26#039;leave it alone%26#039;. You will praobly see little yellow crustys on your lip, which are a good and bad sign. Those crustys are build of bacteria that didn%26#039;t get into your lip, BUT if they do its like having a difty knife go through the hole of your lip. To clean it you soak the piercing in saline and then gentle wipe away the crustys with a cotton swap. My advise though, is to go to 2 or 3 more piercing salons and ask them, they will give you the right dierctions and they ALL will tell you that its never a good thing to not clean it...to help it heal faster you can take tylenol for the swelling and take vitamin B with zinc.hope this helps... but really the best thing to do is do the research... go to a few different places from professional piercers and they will forsure help you out. 100% 1 Vote

I have never done anything to my piercings. Just like they said.. I live by the %26quot;litha%26quot; rule... %26quot;leave it the heck alone%26quot;. But I have neither avoided anything. I have showered, eaten, drank, and more with my piercings without issue. I think that you should be fine. Every body heals in a different time frame, my piercings took about 4 days. My ear cartilage industrial piercing has taken over 9 months and still counting. I hope this helps.
