Umm, what? How in the world did a taper get stuck halfway? If it's halfway, then just pull it back out from the same side you put it in.

It was probably a taper that wasn't safe to stretch with and they left in their lobes halfway for a while? My best guess.

Ah, didn't think about the crappy materials. This is why they shouldn't even make acrylic tapers...

Future reference to you and anyone else reading this...never wear tapers as jewerly, never put a taper in only half way and leave it.

No silicone until a stretch is properly healed (couple of weeks at least). Otherwise you might just find out how stuck improper jewellery can get. Its porous and tacky and skin likes to grow into it.
And in the future; Hot shower/steam & lots of lube. If it still won't budge, leave it alone to loosen up by itself, as long as the material isn't gonna make your ears fall off ofc.
