Ok so, here's the thing. I got my cartilage (top of my ear) pierced 8 days ago. It was done by a gun, and barely even hurt. All I felt was a little pinch. I was told it would take 10-12 weeks to heal, but my body tends to heal fast. At first, it hurt to touch but after a couple days that went down. Now it doesn't hurt at all. I've had no problems with it. No swelling, no redness, and the soreness only lasted about 5 days. I clean it properly every day and rotate it once per day.
I got it done at Claire's and they have me the antiseptic for it. It works great and I use it about 3 times a day.
Here's the issue :: I really want to change the stud. I don't feel ANY pain when touching it anymore. None at all. I was told that I should wait at least 4 weeks. Some people said 4 days. But I feel like the hole has healed fully and I really don't like studs. Never have.
I was just wondering if maybe I could get some opinions on what proletariat think about changing it now vs waiting?
