i did not realize this until just 2 months ago.
i had gauges on my ear for about a year then when i got the size up to 2
it was alright and i guess a month or two after switching to size 2
i was playing with my ear then i realized my right ear is completely fatter and forming around the gauge(the gauge i have on is in a shape of a skinny long icecream cone)
it's really weird
i thought it was swollen so i have left it alone for awhile, i completely forgot about it then just 2 months ago i have realized the swelling has not gone down
yet it feels like my own skin if that makes sense, it doesnt hurt at all when i touch it but it slightly hurts when i squeeze it because the skin has hardened and when i squeeze it with my fingers the hardened skin is pushed against each other and i think that's why it hurts.
and
its not hard like rock hard but when i just touch it, it feel like skin but as soon as i poke it or push it, it sort of hurts.
i guess you can say it's sort of a lump ///
it's not like a bubble, it doesnt feel like it's swollen it feels like thats how it is.
but unfortunately it's only on my right ear, my left ear is perfectly fine.
it's gauged how it's suppose to be.
if you view my left ear (normal ear) from a profile view(side view)
it looks like this, it would look like a line going down
;;

;; <----- that would be the normal ear from the side view
if you view my right ear (swollen ear) from a profile view (side view)
it looks like this, if should be like a line but it seems like a shape of the letter D in a form of lower case
;;
;;;
;;;; <--- it seems totally fat.
someone told me if you move up sizes too fast your ears can be blowout.
but i didnt understand that and i dont think i went too fast because i moved up after a week or 2 weeks
and
if you like me to take a picture of it i will please just say so.
can anyone help me find out what this is?
and
if it's normal?
how i can get rid of it?
sorry if this is very long.
i actually tried to submit this post couple times but i would rather check on this post but im welling to check the other one
thank you:)
