Piercing

Okay so I got my ears pierced in October (with needles - just normal earlobe piercings). The piercer didn’t do a good job at all- I cried when I got home lol.

•My right side is perfect: it’s straight and where it’s supposed to be/right spot. So I’m definitely keeping that one.

•The left side: idk what the hell she did, but it’s higher up than the one on the right side. Might not be THAT much higher up- but it’s noticeable. On top of that she didn’t pierce it straight…so it’s like “tilted down” on the backside of my earlobe.

But I decided to keep both of them in / not remove them until they’re healed because I thought: maybe I can pierce my left ear again but get one under the piercing that’s higher up (so that it “lines up” with the one on the right side)

But idek if there’s space for it - I’m planning on going to a piercing place & ask them if that would work.

But there’s a problem: On the left side (where the bad piercing is, I think I have like a cyst or something (right next to the piercing) which might make it tilt down even more & now my piercing might even be a little bit infected. Idk if it’s because it’s still healing or if it’s because of the cyst (cuz they’re still not fully healed). At this point I’m thinking about taking the left one out and just letting it heal and then getting it pierced again once it’s healed (but in the right spot this time).

I just don’t wanna walk around with one piercing in my ear😭help - what should I do.

Btw: I’m not 100% sure if it’s cysts or not - I’ve had “problems” with my ears: been getting those bumps for a while now. they disappear and come back. Idk if it’s cystic acne or like “other/normal” cysts.

^^

and no I’m not talking about keloids. The bump isn’t around the piercing hole. It’s next to it. I’ve had them before - like before I had my ears pierced.
