SUBJECT: pierned cartilage myself - complications
two days ago, i pierced my own ear cartilage with a gun. everything was fine until today, it has been throbbing constantly. the pain is almost unbearable! interestingly, the ear is not swollen.
i've been applying alcohol several times a day.
it hurts so much right now, i couldn't even remove the stud if i wanted to.
what's going on, and what do i do?
