How many days should I wait. help me

[lourdes]

I tried stretching my ear and it bled a little so I stopped. How many days should I wait to try it again? And some info about cleaning my one stretched ear

[shauna]

Use alcohol to clean it and I would wait for awhile, maybe a week. I would strongly suggest doing this gradually by adding a straw to your ear every few days, cut the straw down to size.

Do NOT use alcohol, it will destroy healthy cells and do nothing for healing. Try sea salt soaks; mix 1/4 teaspoon per one cup of hot water and soak for 5-10 minutes once or twice a day. That will promote healing and the heat will draw the bad stuff out of the piercing. Definitely don't use straws, either... If it bled I'd suggest waiting several weeks before trying again. Your ear needs time to heal and build strength back up.

yeah, basically do the opposite of what shauna said e___e

baby your ear with sea salt soaks. id say wait til the cut looks healed then wait a week or so longer. you can massage your ears once theyre healed to build up healthy tissue, either in the shower or with oil.

Don,t clean it with alcohol it will make it your skin inside crack. Clean it with anti-bacterial soap.

I will tell you a solution. Take one teaspoon of sea salt and dissolve it in 1 cup of warm water. Then submerge your ear in the solution for 10-15 minutes. This should be done 2 to 3 times per day as this help to bring out impurities in your ear hole. Don't over do it.

Some people like to take out their plugs while they shower. By this way they can let their holes relax while they clean the plugs. I also hope you know that you're supposed to wait about a month before moving up a size.
