Answers:
Itching is often part of the healing process. It's annoying, but as long as it's not oozing or really sore, you should be fine. Just make sure you're keeping it clean, and maybe rotate your piercing a couple of times a day so it doesn't bond to the raw skin.
Hope that helps!
p.s. when I say "rotate" I mean just spin it in place.Health Question & Answer
