Just a question- did you get it professionally done the first two times? How much time did you give the second one to heal? And what was your cleaning regime- ie, did you use hydrogen peroxide or any harsh chemicals, and did you soak it in saltwater? All these things could have affected the piercing, and you should keep them in mind if you get it done again. I've had friends that rejected their first piercing, and had another one done perfectly, no problem. I would suggest talking to a reputable piercer, they could give you a definate answer. Also, if you got your piercing from one place for the first two failed piercings, go to another studio!

try to pierce it through the scar tissue it wont hurt any more that it did last time just remember it takes 6 months to fully heal
try soaking it in sea salt it helps to keep it clean and prevent infection. It has worked for all of my piercings
Hope this helps!!

I'm not sure really,maybe you should check with a GP first.I wanted to do that but when I saw a girlfriend who had an infection after that .....no way I'm gonna go thru what she did.Sure looks painful!!
Give it a good thought.Good luck!
