My piercing still hurts and it's been more than a week any advise? I clean it and it only hurts to the touch.

I believe it's pretty common, when you notice swelling long after you've gotten the piercing, that's a problem.

Mine still hurt after years haha, my body hates piercings but I'd say a week and still hurting is normal

Hmm mine only hurt for about a hour after.
it's probably normal though, I wouldn't worry about it.

That happened to my second hole and it turned out to be infected...if it doesn't get better I would talk to someone (like where you got it pierced or doctor or someone)

It actually sounds pretty normal its a puncture basically and will take time to heal you can ice it and keep cleaning it regularly don't touch it to much only with clean hands and when you are cleaning it. when I got my monroe pierced I got a fever after it lol and it was perfectly fine no problem or infection.

Just don't touch it unless you're cleaning it, make sure you're cleaning it twice daily and if there's any infection make sure you don't take the piercing out because that can trap infections in the body. Just continue cleaning it (I like to use a salt saline solution for my piercings that I make myself)
