Stretched up from 5/8' to 3/4". Ear's healing unevenly.

[xpotk]

I stretched up from a 5/8" to a 3/4" a few days ago, and the left one seems to have taken it like a champ; however, the right one is extremely red, swollen, and raw. There is no blood or discharge, just super sore and raw. I had a slight blowout in the right ear a while ago, but it healed over time and I decided it had been a fair amount of time, so I decided to stretch. is there anything I should be doing to help the swelling going down and encourage the skin to heal faster?
