It does look like a pretty bad blowout (although it's hard to tell from just the pictures). You did the right thing by downsizing, now try doing some oil massages with vitamin E, jojoba, or emu oil for a few minutes each day after you shower. When you're rubbing them try to kind of push the blowout back in with your fingers.

id say it looks moderate . Not horrible . you can probably get rid of it By oil massage and letting your ear rest Id say downsize to something very small like 10 ga and wait a few months doing daily massages then when your ready start stretching again very very slowly like one size every 8-10 weeks no faster ... good luck
