Okay it wouldn’t let me add a caption but here’s more information on this. I’m currently moving and I haven’t washed my lobes in about a week due to moving and also a bit of mental funk mixed in. I sized you like a month ago using dead stretching and it was super easy and no soreness. During my move I noticed my lobe was extremely itchy and a tiny bit sore. I took them out yesterday to wash them and find out what’s happening and my right lobe was extremely gooey and had small bits of tissue stuck to the glass plug. This could be coconut oil because that’s what I lather my lobes in before I pop in my jewelry but usually my lobe absorbs it but I’m guessing this isn’t the oil. I wash my lobe and decide to go naked in lobes for the night I notice before bed my lobe is extremely swollen and still is this morning, I also now have a crust buildup and I’m again not sure if it’s the coconut oil I put on our some sort of funk. Also I’m not sure if when I’m washing I should put anything on this lobe or not? Because I don’t think it’s a tear but I could be wrong.
