What should I do if I got my cartilage piercing stuck?

Answer by  sanchlis (63)

Make sure to clean the piercing every day and make it a point to turn it through out the day so that you can avoid the piercing getting stuck again.

Go to a reputable piercer for advice/help(preferably a doctor). There is a good chance of getting an infection, tearing or keloids, especially if you do not heal properly.

Loosen the earing to give it plenty of room in case it swells. Clean with an alcohol swab. In case of infection you can switch to a continuous wire hoop.

The first thing you should do is soak your piercing in warm water. Try to remove it with clean hands. If that doesnt work, your best bet is to just go back to the place where you recieved your piercing and they would have the proper tools to remove it. If you clean it, there should be no infection.

Wash your hands before touching it at all times. You are going to want to twist it 2 to 3 times a day and put some neosporin on it.

It depends in the type if stud you have in. If it is anything that is not surgical grade it may get infected.
