    It different for everyone, some people have piercings heal in a very short amount of time, others can take a lot longer.

    It's true that it can take a year for them to fully heal, I have even heard of people piercings "never" healing and they got them taken out, mostly due to an irritation to the metal used in the actual jewellery.

    I would go down to the place you got it pierced and get them to have a look ta it, they might recommend changing to another metal.

    I personally cannot wear anything but stainless steel or gold in my ears or else they swell up and eventually get infected.
