Downsize back to either 3/4" or possibly 5/8", and do SSS daily. Don't try stretching again for a couple months. Good luck.

I agree. You need to downsize and baby the hell out of your ears, sss and gently rub on some e-vit oil. And don't stretch again for at least 3-4 months or more.

I would say yes. When there is a tear you need to let your ear rest by downsizing, because you could end up with a weak spot if the tissue doesn't get to heal propperly.
