Hi I pierced my left ear lobe on the 2nd of July by myself with a sterile needle, I had it pierced a couple of years ago and it healed up but I kinda followed the hole from then, the next night I kinda forced a 2mm acrylic taper through with some discomfort and left it in there for a couple of weeks then did the same with a 3mm and so on 1mm at a time and today moved up to an 8mm, the only pain i experience is a slight sting as i put the taper through and that goes away really quickly and I clean my ear and taper daily with salt and boiling water, I'm just kinda worried at the speed I've stretched? I'm only going to a 10mm?
Please help?
