Tragus piercing
Hi, I've had my tragus piercing for 8 weeks now. It was completely fine for 6 weeks and then the jewellery fell out when I was cleaning it. I managed to get it back in, (barbell) but was scared about it falling out again and went back to my piercer to get it changed to a labret stud.
I've recently noticed a red lump on one side of the exit/entry hole and the whole tragus is very itchy. I know it may be a hypertrophic scar but I am worried as the jewellery also looks very short. I have been using sea salt soaks 1-2x a day and have tried using tea tree oil but am wondering if anyone else has any better advice?
