fresh 6g stretch (cat butt?)

hi,

i just stretched from 8g to a 6g, maybe a week now? and my left ear looks like it has a cat butt, and maybe my right ear, as well, but not as much as the left one.

when i stretched the right, it stung a bit (but not even enough to say ouch. haha.), and when i tried to stretch my left one, it hurt a bit, but i managed to put it in and i didn't really force it in.

so, do i have a cat butt? and what should i do if i do have one?

thanks!

Your lobes do look a tiny bit wrinkly. If your lobes aren't sore or irritated, you can start doing oil massages. For scar tissue I'd recommend vitamin E oil; you can get the pills and squeeze the oil out or you can buy the oil itself in a bottle. Massage it into your lobes (without jewelry) for a few minutes after you get out of the shower every day.

I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!

hmm.. well, they're not sore, but there is a bit of discomfort if i tug the plug on my left ear. do i have to downsize or anything? or just the vit E oil will do?
thanks!

Downsizing would definitely help if you weren't too bothered to do so. But if you start doing oil massages regularly you should be alright. :)

hmm.. if you say they'll be alright with the 6g, i'll just do the oil massaging. hehe. it's kind of a downer to downsize. hhaha!
