I got my 3 ear cartilage pierced 2 year ago in december. Well I kept it in for a whole year and it didn't cause me any problems. It completely healed. But last yr and past few months or so my piercing got sore and and inflamed and formed a hard bump. It feels like there is a hugs pimple under the skin. But it surrounds the hole.It doesnt itch and doesn't hurt when i touched it.I researched it and I'm guessing it is a Keloid. The hole is still there, but is it safe to keep wearing an earring in the hole? Or should I let it alone? Will the keloid go away? I saw some pretty disturbing pictures on the internet...it isn't going to spread is it? I'm quite worried.:confused::(
