Stretching advice.

Hi,

Was hoping one of you fiine people could give me some stretching advice. Basically, I had both of my ears at around 15mm at one stage (bout 5 years ago) but for the last 4 or so years I've had the same 6mm rings in. I have recently begun to stretch again but am not sure how to proceed with my left lobe. As you can see from the picture, the other ring is causing problems. Is it possible to stretch the lobe further well the piercing above it remains ? I think the ring above the plug is about 2-3 mm thick.

I was thinkin' I could take it out in between stretches or something.

Ideally I would like to get back to 15mm or there abouts again and still have that horizontal style piercing on top.

Any suggestions would be great,

Cheers,
Lee.

Well there is no doubt about it that you are eventually going to have to remove that. It's going to inter fear with stretching and might end up ripping. Just to make sure, I would remove it.

Yeah that does stink dude, but It's not worth the risk of them ripping.
