Stretched 6g ear lobes bleeding?
I started stretching my ears about a month and a half ago.. Maybe 2 months. Anyway, I'm currently at a 6g. I didn't skip any sizes, and I've started at a 14g. This Tuesday, I went from a 8g to a 6g. It hurt a little but the was no bleeding. Since my last stretch, my lobes have been hurting a little bit. I took out my plugs today to clean them, and then my lobes started bleeding. I put alcohol to try to clean them, but it didn't stop. Please help! What do I do?

when stretching ur ears it shouldn't be painful and it definitely shouldn't bleed i recommend going down to 14 again and maybe waiting a little longer for it to get used to the stretch dont use alcohol to cleanse ur peircings or modification for one it can be painfull and for two it irritates damaged tissues in this situation use salt water repeat cleaning with salt water for 3 days and if it still isnt healed get further advice from a doctor :)

Downsize, at least to 8g, 10g or smaller is better. No more alcohol, just saline soaks and gentle soap, treat em like new piercings and let them heal for several months. Next time realize that the amount of pain you felt on this stretch was too much, and always downsize when you have lingering soreness that last for more than a few moments.
