I'm asking on here in case any of you are in this field, or your FS/DS does piercings.. Its worth a try.

I've had my rook pierced for 4 years without a problem. All of a sudden a couple weeks ago it started hurting really bad.. And the pain hasn't gone away. I don't mean its just kind of sore- my whole ear HURTS. I can't wear sunglasses because it hurts behind my ear so bad, I can't sleep on that side, I can't even touch it. And I'm not a baby, I promise. This is just BAD. I just decided to make sure it was clean and leave it alone and let it heal.. Well its not healing and its hurting even worse.

I honestly don't think its infected. Its not red, swollen, nothing is oozing out of it. It just pretty much HURTS. FS and my mom have looked at it, the best they could without touching it, and they think the underneath part of the hole is stretched out.

Can anyone give me any professional advice about this? I'm currently trying to get into the dr today, but any extra help is good!

    Its extremely hard to take it out. I don't know if any of you have bar piercings, but the ball is really hard to get off and you need pliers or something strong. The way its hurting, that would be excruciating to try to mess with. The doctor said its not necessary to take the piercing out.. As I said before, the piercing itself isn't infected it might have just been the cause of the bacteria. But it isn't bothering it at all now, its just my skin that's infected, so there's no need to take it out.

    Batman, you're smart! And yes it is EXTREMELY painful! I'm really not a baby about pain, but this is just killing me!

    Wow. No wonder it hurts so bad. Sorry you're going through all that pain, kk, but at least you know what it is now and it can get better. Smiley smile

    So glad you went to a doctor. Never had cellulitis before but I have had students who have. Goodluck!
