Re: Antitragus issue when gauging up

My cousin just started stretching hers and her advice was to maybe try a no-flare with O-rings and see if it relieves that pressure. She had a similar problem with single flared plugs, but when talking to her piercer, he said that the alignment is correct, just try another type of jewelry.

I've always gone relatively slow, I let my ears rest, etc. I had stretched them to 0g with stainless steel tapers, but couldn't fit the 0g double flare plug in. So I taped it and I soon realized I had ...
