Definitely sounds like a blowout, my friend. The best thing to do would probably be to leave jewelry out or maybe put in a 6g or 8g and do sea salt soaks twice a day until it heals up. Also, in the future, try not to actually wear tapers to keep this sort of thing from happening again, and if you're ever trying to put jewelry in and feel any resistance in doing so, stop and just stay at a smaller size for a bit.
