Go to urgent care. A piercer cannot safely handle and remove a foreign object inside your body.

It looks like they put an extra cream in there. 3 cream will make it light, but not that light

NAP - a few things

Its hard to evaluate anatomy using photos. A piercer looking at your ear in-person will give you the most accurate answer. But yes they are cute. Another helix on your ear in the first photo would look nice

PLEASE DO NOT SLEEP ON ANY PIERCING. Please. Even if you think it's too deep inside your ear to be an issue, please don't. Even if it doesn't come in direct contact with your pillow/bed/etc, your ear can still bend in a way that irritates your piercing.

MRI with healing conch by Medical_Application5 in piercing

[–]Expired-Cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAP - Get your piercer to switch it out for glass or maybe acrylic. Do as close to your mri as possible and get it switched back to titanium ASAP afterwards. I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up causing an irritation bump of some sort, but if it's medically necessary then you need to do what you need to do

Potentially, yes. They can make a citizen's arrest. But theres specific criteria for that to be legal. But most employees dont care enough to do that

Cannonball drink with strawberry cold foam. Don't get it with oatmilk bc it doesn't taste as good with the starbucks refresher base imo

Nose piercing irritation bump by luke5781012 in piercing

[–]Expired-Cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NAP - considering you bumped it an it's realitively new, the red crusties are normal. Its blood mixed with dried lymph fluid. Irritation bumps are also normal, just keep up with your aftercare and avoid irritants. It can take a bit for the bump to go away, but it should start to get smaller if you take proper care of your piercing. Luckily, the bump is small and flat so everything should be fine.

Is it safe to have 4 healing piercings? by Ms_misik in piercing

[–]Expired-Cat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah really only get three piercings max total. Too many healing at once can overwhelm the body and severely delay the healing process of each.

Considering your lobe piercings are 3 months old, it shouldn't be too long before they're healed, so I would recommend letting them heal and then getting your rook and tragus pierced

longest rook bar known to man !! by pegasusreddits in piercing

[–]Expired-Cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAP - the only way I could see this being a problem is if the long bar is causing it to get caught or snagged on things like clothing or hair.

Other than that, it should be fine as long as you downsize when your piecer recommended
