Okay, well I stretched my ear from a 6g to a 4g it went in perfectly fine in my ears, and well I'm new to stretching.. so I'm a little curious what "resistance" is, or what it's like. So, I took out my 4g in one ear, and starting putting a 2g steel taper in because, I was curious I felt the resistance and I started to pull it back, then my hand shook, and I pretty much shoved it through.
There was a break of skin that I felt, it didn't bleed, but I immediately put back in my 4g, and sea salt soaked it because it started to swell. I know that was extremely stupid, and trust me I figured out what resistance is, and why you shouldn't test it.
Anyways, there is no blood just swelling.. is this a blowout? I don't even know, it feels x100 times better now that my 4g is in, so do I need to go back to a 6g? I waited a full month to stretch between 6g to 4g and like I said there was no pain, and the taper went in without any problem.
Do I keep on sea salt soaking? Will this scar my ear or do any permant damage to it? This was the first time obviously.. I am extremely new to this whole process.
