Hi,
3 Days ago i stretched up to 7/16 and initially had no swelling or pain outside of a mild discomfort from bumping into them. I woke up this morning and they've swelled up a good bit. Was wondering if this is normal and if there's any way to help the swelling?

That happened to me when I stretched to 0G. I went back two sizes and took ibuprofen and I was fine. You definitely need to downsize to take the pressure off your lobes and try not to touch/mess with them at all.
I'm Lindsay.
I have 1/2" lobes and 11 piercings: left helix x2, both conches, both nostrils, septum, navel, and VCH.
My lobes are small but I know a lot about stretching and how to do it safely, so message me if you have any questions!
