So i have been at 00 for a while, a little over 6 months i think, and i had these double flare steel tunnels in, and last night i took them out to put new ones in, and the sharp edge tore my ear and it bled a good amount. So far i put in a pair of 00's that are a little bit (about 1 mm) smaller than my regular ones to be safe, and i would like to know what i could do to help? I've heard about sea salt soaks but is there anything else i could do? Hydrogen peroxide maybe?

Also, after the tear is fully healed i plan to massage my ears with my jojoba oil to get rid of the scar tissue. thanks for any help

Sea salt soaks will be great, just make sure you don't use too much salt! And never use hydrogen peroxide; it kills healthy cells and does more harm than good. Sounds like you're on the right track, though.

Alright, think i could get a little advice on how to do them? Haha i've never had a bad tear and i have never really needed to do them.

Sure! I always use an average-size coffee mug since it's 8 ounces (1 cup) or at least very close to it. Fill it up with hot water; you can either boil tap water or microwave bottled/purified water in the cup, and mix in somewhere between 1/8 and 1/4 teaspoon of finely-ground sea salt. Let it cool enough so it's not going to burn you but still really hot, and soak your earlobe in it for 5-10 minutes (but if it's five minutes you might want to do it twice a day). Good luck!

Alright, thank you very much I wanna make sure i have really healthy lobes, so im doing my best to take care of them since i didn't get the best information at the start.
