Tapers aren't a long term solution, but I do find it helpful to wear them for a bit of time, most I've worn mine was a day though, but if your having trouble getting jewelry in, I would just wear the tapers for a bit longer. You want to wear something though, to keep your hole from getting smaller and interrupting the healing process. It's highly recommended you wear single or no flared surgical stainless steel, glass, or pyrex plugs while healing, I know stainless steel keeps infections and bacteria off the jewelry, I believe glass and pyrex do as well, but am too lazy to do a Google search. As far as your tapers sliding off, were they easy to get in to begin with? Have you been wearing them a while? How are your ears healing?
