Hi,
It seems that there might be having bacterial infection due to infected stud.
It should be removed and then after cleaning local part apply antibiotic cream for few days.
If there is no improvement then you might require one course of antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days.
After healing try to put stud.
If hole of prick is closed, go for another piercing with due care.
ok and take care.
