I pierced my cartilage on Friday which was like 4 days ago but it's a little swollen I noticed it a little flat but I clean it alott during the day I clean it whenever I can but I want to know if the swelling will go down because I'm kind of worried about it

Well you could always hold a warm towel against it and see if anything comes out, but if that doesn't work just put some ice on it for a few minutes to numb it for awhile and make sure you don't hit it on any thing.Another thing is you can make a warm sea salt soak and hold your ear in it for a couple of minutes. Just get SEA salt and add warm water. Done. I did this and it worked for me because I got to double helix piercing on both ears and I needed some pain to go away and this worked wonders! So I hope this also works for you!

BTW! Sorry for the wait!
