Amusement park with recent piercings

Not sure about the flair.

Hi, I have a possibly silly question. I had my conch, helix and flat done on one of my ears two weeks ago. I'm going to an amusement park next week.

My piercings seem to be doing fine. The inflammation seems mostly gone, I don't feel them if I don't touch them but they do hurt a bit if something hits my ear accidentally.

I'm planning to avoid the type of rollercoaster that could have my head banging from side to side.

Is there any other precaution I should be taking?

New piercings related questions

Hi, I just got my conch/helix/flat done together. I understand it's not everyone's preference here to do several ear piercings in the same ear together, but I'm hoping to get some answers still.

\\- I would like to know what you think of the positioning of my piercings. My piercer chose them to mostly respect what I asked for while not having them too close together for healing.

\\- My piercer advised me against doing the vertical helix that I wanted (the choices for the rest would have been different if I had gotten it). In his opinion, it's generally a bad idea, as the angle makes it very difficult to heal.

Do you guys agree with this? Additionally, I realise now that what I really wanted might actually have been a hidden helix.

\\- He didn't offer any option for the jewelry itself other than the Titanium classical ones I have here. He explained that he does offer them for some piercings if it's the client's preference, but not for these three and certainly not for these three together, again for ease of healing reasons.

Do you think this is good practice?

\\- I asked if my placement and my morphology would allow for an anti-helix on the same ear. He said yes, but I should wait. He also said anti-helix can be one of the slowest to heal. Again that seemed like good advice to me but what do you think?

\\- I hope my photo is clear enough this time!

New ear piercings

Hi. From my lurking around here, I understand a lot of people here are against getting multiple piercings at the same time.

For various reasons, I got a few together. I'm hoping to get opinions about the placements anyway. Thank you all.
