Daith piercing, care and reasonable swelling?

I recently got a daith piercing in one ear (exactly a week ago), and wanted to know if anyone had any tips on cleaning and reasonable amount of swelling.

Obviously cleaning is a little difficult with where its located, so at the moment i just spray it with a saline solution i bought at the piercing salon and try to dab off any excess moisture.

as you can also see from the before and after photo, the area where a rook piercing would go is quite swollen.

Therefore, I was wondering if anyone had could tell me if theres a reasonable amount of swelling to be expected (before I may want to go back to the piercer), or cleaning protocol for this area. As well if theres any thoughts or comments on the angle, depth, etc.

Thanks!
