Tunnel went through my ear
I ordered a stretching kit off ebay like 2 weeks ago. And when I got it I thought it was cool that it came with 14g tunnels. So I put one in my left ear because that was the only one I had at 14 because my other one didn't like being stretched and because I have a barbel in right so I wouldn't look as stupid with a tunnel and a barbel. But anyways, I had it in for a little over a week, and this morning I woke up and my left ear felt a little weird, so I touched the front and found that the flare of the tunnel was inside my ear. So I went to my bathroom and pulled it out. It didn't really hurt but on the tunnel there was some crusties with a tiny bit of blood, but it was dry blood, and none came out when I took the tunnel out. So I put in my 14 CBR and soaked it in SS. When I move the ring there is a little bit of pain which sucks because it had healed pretty good. It sucks because now I'm afraid of using the tunnels in the kit. Is there anything I should do? Or should I continue soaking it and baby it a bit.

Re: Tunnel went through my ear

Re: Tunnel went through my ear
yeah, there isn't much you can do except baby your ears until they heal. if you can go to the store and get some screw on tunnels that would be best for your ear

This happened to me as well, except at 8g.
Just baby your ear and continue doing sea salt soaks but other than that leave them alone.
