Ok, I just got my cartilage pierced in my right ear about 4 hours ago. ever since I got it there was a small (very small) bump right next to where the earring goes in. it is not red or anything, it just looks like a little bump about the size of a pimple. is this normal for this kind of piercing? personal experience?

Ok. so im going to get my upper left cartilage pierced in late may and i was talking to my mom about it she wanted to know a few things that i didn’t know or cant find on the internet.
first, are the earrings you use for cartilage piercing the same size as the normal lobe piercing or are they longer.
secondly, how do you put the earring in, is it like a lobe earring with a back or is it different.
thanks.

i got my lip pierced on wednesday, so far i’ve been using alcohol free mouthwash, and i’ve been spraying h20cean on it. But today i bought listerine antiseptic mouthwash, is that ok to use?
and i’ve heard people say to use sea salt and do soaks with it, how do you do that? because my lip piercing still hurts and I don’t feel like i’m doing this right
thanks
?
