But today i realized that the earrring i put in (which was from my 2nd hole from clares) that it is swollen and the earring is not sticking out like its supposed to. it actually looks like if you run your finger over it that it swelled up so much that the earring is at skin level. please please help!! i have those really small backings from like those dangly earrings. they are like rubber and really small. should i replace my original backing with those to give it more room??? (and i really want to save this piercing) so if yo uhave any suggestions please lemme know. also i heard about a sea salt soak. what does that do and would you suggest it? thanks [/QUOTE]
