So as some of you know I stretched my ears too a 6g, there wasn't any problem with using the taper but when it came to the tunnels my ears was swollen because I didn't get the tunnel in three times so I needed to use the taper again so I could get the tunnel through but in the end I just pushed it through and it dit bleed a tiny bit, but today it's sore and it bleeds when I take the tunnel out and there was something white in the hole, I also dit turn it a lot, so what can I do should I stop turning them and taking them out when I clean them or?

I feel like you messed it up when you forced the 6g through n it bled. I'd go to wear you got the piercing n ask them. personally, I'd go back down n let it heel properly.

Did you use a lubricant when you stretched your ears up? I would say leave them in for at least a few days, so try not to touch them. Also a bit of jojoba oil massaged around the lobes will promote some healthy blood flow. If the problem persists you may have caused a minor blowout. Is it both ears or just one? But, honestly it sounds like you're just stretching a bit to fast. Hope I could help! :)

Sonya yes I did use lubricant, my ears was ready cuz the tapers did get in more or less smoothly there was a little resistance and it did sting, and when I did stretch it, it didn't bleed only when I wanted to put the tunnel in my earlobes are big and because I had some problems pushing the tunnel in I needed to push my taper in again so my ears got swollen so it was hard to get the tunnel through.

Oh, okay! Because your tunnels are double flared? I think you should be okay, the swelling should subside.
