I believe I have a blowout, need specific advice

Need more bloodflow, I can feel the bottom of my lobes fine. It could also be possible (although I'm not sure as I'm not a doctor) that you might have damaged a nerve?
You should definately still be able to feel your lobe, try pinching it with your nails? If not I'd suggest getting some warm sea salt soaks on it to improve the circulation and oil massages once your lobes heal up a bit more.

Yeah last night when I pinched it with my nails I could feel it. Today after I did a sea salt soak I could feel them well. I've been doing oil massages every day.
The tear in my left ear is now gone, I'm glad to say. My ears are looking much better and today is the first day since my first post that I've put jewelry in: I put some 0g tapers in. My left ear (where the rip was) stung a little for the first few seconds. My right ear didn't hurt at all. Also the piercings' skin is looking less like scar tissue and more like healthy skin so I guess my treatment is working.

Btw I'm confused about how often I should do sea salt soaks and oil massages...I'm afraid I'm going to do it too much.

Good to hear about your ears looking healthy and healing up nicely.
I'd say if you're comfortable with how you're doing it, and your ears are loving you for it, then there's nothing wrong with keeping on doing with whatever you're doing :3
Although most people say to do sea salt soaks 2-3 times a day. Oil massages I've seen some people say to just do it once before bed, others say before bed and in the morning when you wake up.

Me, I just do it once a day whenever I notice jojoba oil sitting there and go "oh hey I haven't done my ears yet today."

Either way it's good news ^_^. Keep it up bro

Yeah thanks man!
I'll increase the number of sea salt soaks I do.
And I was already doing the oil massages before bed so thats good.
Thanks for the comments Stricky, I'll be sure to post more if I have any more problems.

Happy piercing
