Many people advocate a chamomile compress as a way to help soothe a piercing and potentially prevent scarring. You will need a bag of chamomile tea. Boil some water and immerse the tea bag in the water. After several minutes, remove the tea bag. Let the tea bag cool for a few minutes. Then, apply the tea bag to your piercing, in the area where you feel pain. If you got your lip pierced, eating and drinking something cool can help. Try ice cream, cold water, cold beverages, popsicles, frozen yogurt, and other cold items to ease the pain. You can also eat small pieces of ice to get relief from pain with lip or tongue piercings. There may be certain foods that irritate your skin. If anything you're eating seems to aggravate the piercing, try something else. While putting ice or an ice pack on your piercing may seem like a good idea, you could end up accidentally irritating the piercing by putting pressure on it. If you want to cool the area, stick to something gentler, like a cool chamomile tea compress. Aside from oral piercings, most piercings do not swell very much if they're done correctly. You shouldn't have any need to use ice to reduce swelling from a non-oral piercing.
