Okay I know the photo has bad quality and all but I took it with my phone. Well I got both my hips pierced about 2 weeks ago and I’m scared that they are starting to reject. They are really sore and hurt to touch. I’m really careful and I’ve only bumped them once. And I nearly cried from the pain. Friends and family are scared that they are infected and I’m just worried about not being able to keep them. Are my hip piercings going to reject or is this just the healing process? I have flexible bars in my hip piercings and I think they are nylon however I have no idea.

Can someone help me because I am worried about it all and this is my first experience with surface piercings.

Unfortunately, those are almost certainly destined to reject. Improper shaped jewelery and inappropriate materials in a high movement, high impact area like that will ensure those piercings don’t look great for ever.

If you’re concerned you have an infection, have your doctor take a look at them and get some antibiotics before you remove the jewelry. And you will have to remove the jewelry and try the piercings again.
Find a more experienced piercer and maybe consider Surface Anchors or at least an implant grade steel or titanium surface barbell.
