As Morgan discovered, you can’t force your ears to stretch! That said, figuring out where your body’s limits are is part of the learning process if DIY is your thing. Still, there’s something to be said for taking it really slow — either way, her ear is just fine now, although she lost about a 1/16″ in size from this.

Oh shit that’s messed up! I’ve seen people clean their fresh piercings with 96% alcohol – the scabs were fucking GREEN. And I agree, she could have at least wiped the scab off a little before taking the picture..

ahhhhhhh, hahahaha. XD that happened to one of my ears last year. i got so addicted to stretching, i ended up skipping sizes and stretching them more ever few hours. then POP! nasty goop started oozing. bled forever. scared me so bad. went down waaay smaller size and have no intention of stretching them more anytime soon. luckily it healed very well, since i took care of it right when it happened.

Something tells me that if her ear was cleaned up a bit before the photo was taken the wound wouldn’t be as bad as it appears to be now.

That happened to my lobes once a few months ago when I tried skipping a size. It happened overnight, and it didn’t hurt. It was fun to clean, and it was still at the same size it was before I tried stretching. They turned out fine, and are at 1/2″ and perfectly healthy. 🙂 Sometimes stuff looks way worse than it actually is!

how has everyone failed to realise that picture 1 with the jewellery still in place, is a different ear to the other two….
either way, I feel bad for people this happens to. :/ looks gross, but I’m guessing it would be painful as!

I’m really lucky that I have had no problem stretching my ears. In 6 months I went from 20g to 5/8 with very minimal damage!!!

So this recently just happened to me. How exactly do I take care of it? Also is it alright to put a smaller plug in or should I just wait for it to heal?

I’d poke it, stab it, bite it hard, and tear that sh*t off real good and make blood and pus run!!! Nice.

DUDE! How the hell did you let your ear even get like this?? Only an idiot would do something like this and not take care of their own ears.
I havent had my ears stretched in 2 yrs and just this saturday I did mine on my own. I did them to a 00G (3/18 Inches) and even I TAKE CARE OF MY OWN EARS!! I use Hydrogen Peroxide, soap, and sea salt (a pinch of salt then add warm water).
But seriously!! IF YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO PROPERLY STRETCH YOUR EARS THEN DONT DO IT AT ALL!!
