allergic reaction to plugs or Infection?
Last week I got new plugs they were 00g and I was a 0g. The last time I had 00g was about a year ago and I used the same tapers to go back up to 00g. I'm not careless, i cleaned everything thoroughly just like i had any other time i was going up a size. I have to say my biggest problem is that although i can use tapers, i am allergic to the bands so i have to switch from the tapers relatively quickly before my ears get irritated. Any who, (this is the part where i went wrong) the flesh tunnels that i got along with the plugs were acrylic, and i had never worn acrylic before and i put those in right after i stretched the lobes. stupid me, i know. I hadn't realized that it was bad to do that because like i said, this is the first time i had ever used them. Any ways. Now my ears are swollen and there is pus coming out of them and my glands are swollen. It's been like that for a couple of days now. I changes the flesh tunnels back to my 0g flush tunnels because they are metal and i never had a problem with them before. I just don't know what else to do.
