Please answer . my cartilage piercing..

Question

Well i got it pierced 2 1/2 months ago and took care of it for bout 1 month then i went to vacation and it started healing w/o it and i wanted to know if it healed. Well spinning it dont even hurt at all, sleeping dont even hurt unless i use full pressure and the front dont even hurt that much so does it mean its almost healing and when do you think i should change the earing and i got it done with a gun. no problems, no bump, not even a infection and i guess im lucky and its doing fine. Well, thank you

Answer 1

dont get it done with a gun, especially cartilage, a gun can do alot of damage, get it done with a needle and personally i would get it pierced with a 14Guage insted of 16G and weather it is healed or not, well its hard to tell but i would say leave it till it is not sore nothing coming out like you've said it is like now...then wait 2 weeks, by then if its still good you should be good to get it re-pierced just remember, get it done with a needle, guns are only safe on ear lobes. i had 3 done in my left ear lobe with a gun (1 was removed) then i used a needle to re-pierce n it worked out so much better then the gun so even on ear lobes i'd use a needle, its safer and in my experience it heals better and faster  

Answer 2

unless the piercing has closed all the, way, you can't get it redone

but if you still have the earing in, and you can change the earring

but to redo it with a gun, it needs to fully heal
