Hey guys I got my cartilage pierced last Monday April 13th, it is now April 22nd. I have two quick questions: is it normal for my cartilage piercing to still be sore? I don't feel any soreness/tenderness until I touch around or at the peircing and that's also including when I clean my cartilage. My second question is that I was pushing the back of the earring in to see what my cartilage piercing looked like in the front and to me it looked like it was white in the inside.. but not really really white... I am not oozing any puss of any sort but is it infected? What do I need to do..?
