SERIOUS QUESTION. Nipple Piercings

Hey Ladies.

I have my nipples pierced. I know that sore nipples/breasts can be a early sign of pregnancy.

I am 8DPO today the last 2 days my right nipple has literally been burning and stinging and hurting so badly that I am almost ready to take them out. 🥵

Please anyone else have their nipples pierced and experience anything like this? Could it be pregnancy? Should I just put the plastic ones in? I woke up this morning and told my husband I felt like my nipple was literally going to fall off. The left on is tender and sore to the touch but this right one 🤬🤬🤬
