its been a while since i decided to go up a size. i was at a 2 for almost a year. and ive always have problems with my ears and sizing up. so i ordered a 1g and those went in pretty easy. then a few hours later i thought i would try to put in a 0g taper.
it went in fairly easy. but \its been 3 days after i put it in and its red and still swollen
i dont know if its normal or im just freaking out over nohting because ive had my holes get infected.
but is this normal?

Re: 3 days later
its not normal, your ears werent ready to go all the way to 0g. downsize back to either the 1g or 2g (2g is better). this will help relieve pressure and let your ear heal faster.
