    Cartilage piercing redness
    Ok so it's been 3 days since I got my cartilage piercing with a gun, and on the beginning I knew it would hurt and it would be red and that stuff cause I have one in my ear lobe for a year and a half. Then I had a basketball training and I didn't want to get it out I trained and everything after the training I went home and went to sleep I didn't sleep on the left side where I pierced it... well I tried not to sleep on that side I woke up in the morning and it was just hurting a little. The second day it hurt a little and it was kind of swollen but not like really swollen just little and little bit red and it hurt on its own, I did accidentally touch it when I was putting my t-shirt on so I think it's only just irritated cause I know its all normal I have a picture: http://i.imagebanana.com/img/q1gvz5ek/snapshot2.jpg, cause it all happened when I got my ear lobe. So today I woke up and it hurt even on the back of my ear I don't see any bumps or anything, I just want your thinking on it, if it is an infection or anything. Oh and I wanted to ask when can I start taking it off at my practice cause I don't want to get it ripped when playing a game :), and can I normally shower with it.
    Thanks in advance
