My lip piercing won't go in help?

I've had it done for at least two months and it was healed fine but i took it for my school photo and when i tried to put it back in it would only go in half way but an earring stud will go in fully help?

thats bc you took it out!!! listen lip piercings close really fast, in a matter of hours trust me. this is my 3rd time getting it pierced/tapered. your going to have to go get it tapered. bring your old jewelry with you and go to the shop, tell the piercer you took it out for a while and you get only get it half way back in. she will taper the half thats closed (which pretty much means re-pierce) and put it back in for you. I dont think they will charge you. they never charge me. well good luck. and if you ever want to take it out for some reason you can go to places like claires and get invisible ones to put through so you dont have to take it out and leave it out.

• omg the last answer sombody copied lol
  anyways,
  this happens alot
  it happened with my nose ring, you should get a retainer for it;D
  and uh id definitly just go to the place where you got it done and explain whats up, everytime i go for some help with my smiley or anything they are always lovely and help me out,
  if your that desperate to get it back in try getting a needle and just pushing it through a bit (make sure its steralised) an earing isnt really the best thing to use since the end is blunt, just try with the needle though its what i do somtimes;D
  hope i helped in some way...;D
• Try using soap and with warm water and then try to insert it.If you are having trouble,you can always walk into a tattoo shop and someone will help you with this.
• Soak some cotton wool in warm water and hold it on your lip for a few seconds. This should make it a little easier to get the bar back through.
• it seems as though it is closing up.
