Was just wondering, can smaller blowouts heal up without having to downsize? As long as you take really good care of it by cleaning it and soaking it, massaging it and all that?
I have my 6g tapers in (until my stainless steel tunnels get here in the mail) and the back of both ears have very tiny blowouts, it kind of looks like a raised white ring of skin all around the hole. The front and inside of the hole looks really healthy though, it doesn't go wrinkly when I take out the jewellery to clean it and I can see through to the back, but obviously it's still a bit tender if I bump the back of it.
I just don't want to downsize to 8g because the only jewellery I have to put in is 8g tapers, and with the 6g tunnels coming I'm thinking it will also help them heal up more.
