I got my Ears Pierced for the first time last July and now it is currently May 2026. I went to my Piercer 1-2 months ago to explain what was going on and she recommended me changing out my Earrings to a pair that catches on things less so I did. She mentioned they were a bit irritated but should be fine to change out in a few weeks. I still clean them to this day with normal Saline wound wash recommended from the place itself. I still get crust and sometimes tugging on it resets the healing which causes some minor bleeding. The shape is small and has a flat back. Sometimes they do itch. The one irritated one is currently itching. When going into this I thought it would've healed by now. My Moms lobe piercings she got when she was super young don't bleed or itch or crust up. How long do I have to wait for all this to go away? Can I even change out my earrings?
