Anyone else?

When I was very young, my mom took me to get my cartilage piercing re-done. However, the guy that did it barely lined it up and was extremely fast and careless. I now have a large, painful bump on the back of my ear (behind the back of my earring) and it’s frustrated me that I’ll never be able to get rid of it. Has anyone else had this happen (or any other permanent injury from a piercing or tattoo)?
