Stretching after irritation

Hi I'm completely new here *waves*. I've been Googling like crazy trying to find a answer to this but couldn't find anything so i decided to make a account on a forum & I see.

So my left ear got irritated about a week & a half ago & swelled up. I soaked it & took care of it & the swelling is gone. But my question is can i stretch my ears to a bigger size today or do I have to wait longer because my ears were just irritated. This guy I know said i should wait a month but i wanted different opinions because they feel & look fine. (I'm going from a 6g to a 4g by the way)

I really suggest you wait a lil longer to , waiting can only help .. if you try again now and irritate it again its just going to sit you back farther and you will end up having to wait even longer .. since it was just irritated and not blown out or ripped Id go with what your friend suggested wait about 4 to 6 weeks and as long as they have no signs of irritation try again then
