Is it a screw-on tunnel with threading? If so, I'd avoid it for about a week, or longer if your stretch is sore or anything like that. Threading can tear skin, which is why internally-threaded jewelry is better than externally-threaded in any piercing. It should only be worn in extremely well-healed piercings.
I've used these to stretch with before:

I'm Lindsay.
I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!
