My Stupid Ear

As some of you know I recently got two more holes stabbed though my body. Since the earrings they were originally pierced with were a little small I changed them to a longer pair that I owned, and I guess I didn’t clean them well enough, or else the place that pierced them didn’t have me properly sterilized, because they did look like they were swelling to me before, in fact I changed them because they were getting tight. So the next day they were looking a little red... no problem that’s happened before, I must have just slept on them wrong or something. And then the next day my whole ear was so red and swollen I couldn't believe it, so I gave them both a good clean and I thought they would be fine, but long story short, they weren't. So I got Kim to clean them off, and she said it was only the one that was really bad and that I better take it out, and HOLY CRAP!! It hurt so much I almost fainted, so we cleaned them all off and everything and me being the smart person I am decided that maybe if I just put it in really loosely it would be fine and it would just heal up. So I went through the whole fainting thing again, and after that I decided I better just take it out, and now I’m really mad, because I didn't want to take it out. I still want to just find something that is really loose and put it in but I dint have anything that is loose and wont hurt to get in so now I don't know what to do, and I really want my earring back!

hey becky
it's a good thing you took it out. i know someone who needed to get her "top" earring CUT out by the doctor who said if she had waited just a few more hours she would have lost the top of her ear. DON'T put anything back in that poor little hole. she was told there's sometimes not enough blood circulation to heal in that area.

Well I left it out over night and it went down a lot, but in the morning the hole was still there so I did put it back in. But it seems to be fine, but if anything happens I wont hesitate. That's really creepy!
