safe to stretch?

[maddtastic]

i've been at 2G for about two months now and i went to put in a new set of double flares and my right ear started to bleed. i can only assumes this means a cut so how long should i wait to stretch to 0G? i'm not in a rush just curious- much appreciated!

If your ears started bleeding, I would suggest that you downsize to 4G. Do sea salt soaks until your ears are healed and wait for a while longer then you can stretch back up to 2G. Then you should wait around 4 more months to 0G. This may seem like a lot, but to be safe and to keep your lobes happy, I think this would be best.
