6g, one ear bleeding?

I stretched to a 6g, they were both healing fine. Went thru the itching stages of healing and could take my jewelry in and out to clean it fine, now all of a sudden, my right ear is bleeding? Any ideas why? I only use warm water to clean with, don't put lotions or anything on my lobes, no idea what could have caused irritation from them being fine yesterday to bleeding today... :|

Re: 6g, one ear bleeding?

It may be that you got a little tear in your lobe. You may have scratched it or something when you were changing out your jewelry. In order to help it heal you should probably downsize for a couple of weeks and then stretch back up.

If you think it is an irritation like an allergic reaction sometimes people become sensitive to materials that they were fine with before. Make sure you are using a material that is safe such as surgical steel, or glass. I personally am in love with glass
