So, I stretched my ears from 2-0 yesterday and it got very swollen todya, one alot more then the other.. I saw this coming in a way but I cannot downsize till friday because I left my 2 guage at dads... So i'm stuck with it till then because I will not do all the stretching AGAIN. No way, no how. So, any tips on a way to help it heal and reduce the swelling so I wont even have to downsize(this may also be just because it's 2 to 0 which is the first 2 mm stretch)

How about take them out for good so that you don't look like an idiot.

Sorry, I just think it is a stupid thing to do, and it looks stupid, also. But anyway, I'm not a doctor, but I hear that ice helps with swelling. I once heard that Ibuprofin helps with swelling. I also remember hearing one time that Neosporin will keep it clean. But those are all just guesses.

Ice. Motrin. Neosporin. Other than the basics, I have no clue.

If it's swollen to the point that you look like somebody who just had an allergic reaction (but just on your ear), I'd waltz my way down to a piercing shop asap. they'll be able to offer you the best advice for your situation.

See, People this was constructive! and it is not yet to that point, I am also using piercing lotion... I don't know why I did not think of it before... I guess its been years since I used that kinda stuff I forgot it was around and my brother luckily got his ear pierced a few months back and had half a bottle left.

Actually I think bashing nasty piercings was more constructive

My lip is a bit swollen... what should I do?

BMD004

If you expand the size of your mouth plug, wouldn't that compress the layer around the lips, thus reducing the swelling?

Dude don't listen to these hippies. I use to have my ears gauged up to 3/4th. But I blew my ear so I had to take them out. Im really not happy about it either. :(. As for the swelling and such, just let it be. I had that happen to me a few times and it kinda just went away.

Thank you, Piercings are starting to be looked upon much more lightly now. Like it or not... As an employer you have to. Also for many jobs the school and employee himself is better then his appearance.

Yes well, some people were never taught if you have nothing nice to say do not say anything at all.
