Warning: Graphic and large photo!
I've been at a 6g for about two weeks and I've had some double flared plugs. I go to put them in but they dont fit. I give up after the first try, didnt want to risk anything. Promptly did a sea salt soak and went to go put normal plug back in. Single flared with oring on back. It was a really tight fit and i figured they just closed a bit. So i pushed through, and when it did, there was a popping sound, followed by a cool rush of blood (sorry if too graphic). I immediately freak out and take the plug out and dab toilet paper in salt water and wash up. The bleeding doesnt stop, so I fear a blowout and throw an 8g plug in. The thing is, it doesnt hurt, at all. It feels like a compleltely healed piercing. I cant even feel its there. Literally no pain at all. The catch is, there is a flap of skin hanging out the back of my ear with a slow blood drip (like a freshly popped zit). I'm going to the piercer ASAP (its a stretching specialty shop) but for now I'd like to know what you guys think. I'm fearing a blow out. Ive got a picture and it might be a lil graphic for some.
