HELP...? My tragus piercing sinked!

[Mrs. Morale]

My right tragus started to hurt a bit last night (I bounce it bit while combing my hair) but then few minutes ago when I woke up, I bounce it again (because me waking up & turning & all that, I wasn't in my full sense of mind). My right ear tragus piercings has sink, I just wake up & realize this. I know my right tragus is bigger / fatter my left tragus since my piercer informed of this before she pierced them + she said they will eventually sink & would have get them change then. I'm going let her take a look at it today & see if it needs to be change. It doesn't not look infected but it bit swollen. I applied hot compress on it, it doesn't hurt as much as before.

Help...?

i have a tragus piercing and i've had the same piercing in for 5 years now, its quite a long bar though so maybe you just need a longer piercing on that side

Thanks! I was thinking the same. It's been 2 weeks & it's just swollen (thankfully), I'm going to let her change it today.

I have mine pierced with a stud but I brought an horseshoe earrings for when it's sinks.
