Ah yes you can use Epsom salt, but do not use table salt!!!!!! If you see swelling or puss don't see a doctor they do more harm than good and don't know anything about piercings, go back to the piercer. This has some info tattoos.lovetoknow.com  bodypiercing.ygoy.com

Yes, you can use epson salt to clean a monroe. The salt that people recommend is sea salt, but when you are out of sea salt or table salt epson salt will be fine.

Avoid disenfectants as they do more harm than good. Because a monroe is an "open" piercing it takes a long time to heal and your body will try and reject it. Several times a day swish very warm salt water in your mouth and let a warm cloth soaked in salt water lie on your piercing. Hot water and the salt draws out any infection that may be forming and allows your body to heal properly.

The younger you are the bigger chance you have of rejection as your body is still constantly changing and your cell growth is much faster than an adults. If you see ANY swelling or puss you need to see a doctor. The chance of an infection spreading to your blood is huge with an oral piercing and very often blood infections go undetected because they can't be seen and can end in serious health problems.
