should i take out my earrings? 
i got them pierced by a piercer back in december and they’re still not healed. i tried everything nd they’re not healing, both of them have bumps as well now sighs nd theyre painful
thursday im having surgery so i have to take em out for a day, idk if theyll even go back in after or if theyll close up immediately but if they do go back in, should i bother or just let them close up? 

ive wanted earrings forever, had them done as a kid but they got infected back then so i took em out and let them close. tried again but theyre just not healing at all even though the material is titanium and ive been very very good w cleaning and stuff… 

so feels like this could be the moment to just take them out and give up but also.. i want earrings soooo bad ahh

However, the more times you get them pierced the bigger the chance of getting bumps..

I think I would try finding some earrings from another material, possibly a flatback or smaller hoops if yours isn't already, so it moves more easily with your ear without disturbing the hole too much.

Is it just a normal lobe piercing? Healing is a very long process (I've had some for over a year and they still haven't healed) so I'd say if you think they aren't worth the pain, you should take them out. As for the bumps, I took a clean cloth and dipped it in hot water, not too hot, your skin should be able to handle it, and pressed it to the bump for a few minutes. It can hurt a little but it should be fine. I did this for a week or so and there is no sign of them now.

it's expensive, but i think pure gold is good for people with allergies
if you wanna stick it out, bumps can go away eventually (my septum took like 3 years to heal)
Sometimes you gotta make sure you're not over-cleaning, and make sure your piercings are always dry afterwards

i feel like best course of action would be to retire them for now, let them heal and maybe try again at a later date.
and like suchomimus said, overcleaning is also a thing D:

honestly i got lobed pierced by my hairdresser when i was 12, it got infectedand never healed because i had to constantly take them out for school pe lessons and then i just retired them. 13 years latr i go to a piercer to have them repierced, the piercer goes "im gonna try t o taper first" and soehow ??? after 13 years of nothing n them + them never really healing they taperd open and i didnt even feel it. then they just put jewelry back in and now i have functionin lobe piercings again, which i seem to have had all along lol

im v sure its not overcleaning as ive tried many different routines and also nothing multiple times ;( 
i think i might retire them depending on how easy they are to get in. if its a little bit of a struggle just leave them out

i swapped to flatbacks that were longer and it helped my ears a lot, i got ones for nostril piercings, they're slightly smaller in diameter but that can also help with the pain. i also started washing them, w bar soap before bed and int he morning (helps remove oils)
(i did this when i wash my face, and just gently, no need to pull. and pat dry)


are you able to get a pic at the little bump? is it discolored like a pimple or does it feel like something under your skin?
