DIY hip piercing jitters. am I going to die?
that was very stupid. It will most likely get infected and reject - aka your body will push the jewellery out of your skin, causing ugly scars. So just take the jewellery out now. Soak the wound in a sea salt mixture - 1/4 tsp non iodized sea salt + very warm water. Maybe a drop of tea tree oil. Use cotton balls to clean the wounds then pat dry with a clean tissue. try ibuprofen for the pain. Hopefully scabs will form and it'll seal up quickly, preventing infection. But still, watch out for signs of infection - increased pain, pus, redness, heat, if that happens you should probably go to the doctor, and never do something so stupid again. DIY rarely works out...
