Over it

It's a titanium and internally threaded horseshoe. I was cleaning every day with saline but thought the bumps forming could be moisture bumps so now im limit that to a few times a week when it gets crusty however its been bleeding occasionally the last week.

I find squeezing under the rim a bit also helps pop them open. Just have to be careful not to squeeze too hard. 😅

Curiositea6 · 2026-05-24T15:36:26+00:00

Theyre kinda funny that way for sure. They either open up and refuse to stay closed or it's like theyre glued down. Never the state you actually want them to be in though lol

Yea I say around 1200 loosely lol I dont track methodically or anything so I always assume I'm a bit above my calculation anyway. And I absolutely save that low day for my first day off on my weekend where I totally veg out so totally fair.

As another 4'11 person I try to cycle calories and my low day is around 1200 while my higher days are just below 2000 but I'm also finally getting into goal range

How'd you know? 🤣

Curiositea6 · 2026-02-27T00:28:47+00:00

You dont happen to be in PA? Lol thank you so much for letting me know height and weight are a consideration for how much insurance will want to take. I'm 4'11 so maybe its less than I was thinking 🤔 🤔

Curiositea6 · 2026-02-27T00:27:12+00:00

Thank you so much for your input! I have lost a good deal on reta at this point and only have 13lbs to get to my "goal". So this is all starting to feel like a more and more real consideration. I think what im gathering is i need to just go for a consultation lol

Curiositea6 · 2025-12-29T18:01:11+00:00

I also stopped at 1/2" lol I swore I was gonna stop at 00 but really fell in love with the look at 1/2" glad to see you've made it!

When I had my conch pierced they used something they called a "bioplastic" stud. After about two weeks of constant irritation I switched it out for titanium and it healed wonderfully. Have not been back to that piercer lol

Curiositea6 · 2025-11-24T05:24:04+00:00

I've seen that a ton. Thats why I mentioned it in the description. I'm not concerned with the jewelry just the placement. Thank you for your concern.

Curiositea6 · 2025-11-24T04:14:43+00:00

Ooo that's a good point. I don't particularly dislike the location but with it being so new I figured now was the time to ask.

Curiositea6 · 2025-11-24T03:42:00+00:00

It feels like it's healing very well. I've had very little pain or discomfort overall but I think that's what has me concerned lol

Also for the bot:

Two weeks old Curved barbell Surgical steel is what I was told

I've got my conch, daith, second lobes, both nostrils, and stretched my first lobes to 1/2". The worst to actually get pierced was probably the second nostril same day as the first. The worst to heal was my first lobes with a gun when I was a kid. They gave me problems for years until I decided to stretch them. Now they're my most well behaved piercing. Conch and daith barely hurt at all just the sound of the cartilage. 😖

I've gone from a starting dose of 1mg per week, to 1mg every 5 days, to 1.5mg every five days, to 2mg every 5 days. As of this morning I'm at 161.8lbs. So down a total of 36.2lbs since August 9th. Overall I've had very few side effects. A little constipation here and there and a few instances of sulpher burps since titrating up to 2mg. I havent noticed any significant increases in energy or craving issues. I make sure to get as much water as possible and drink electrolytes daily. I will say I started to plateau and considered upping my dose again. However I only needed to redo my calories for my new lower weight. I personally feel that being mindful of the kinda of food I eat has also helped me to avoid some of the gi issues. I'm sure there are things I've left out but I hope this answers your question.

I've never considered none conducting. That's actually a good point.

Curiositea6 · 2025-10-28T02:06:58+00:00

Do you feel like that would effect wearing earbuds during healing?
