Snagged an already irritated lobe piercing and it bled :(

When i woke up an hour ago, i guess i snagged my already crusty irritated lobe piercing. So it bled a bit. Ran hot water through it and cleaned it a bit. I should be stepping out in a while to get some saline solution. Does it look just irritated still or infected? I already had a post about this a couple days ago. So pissed that i snagged it. Made more anxious. The other one, right side, is healing better. Both had them done at the same time. If it worsens maybe i just need to take it out and have it close and try again next time. I’m away from my piercer because i moved provinces/states.

- 2-3 month old
- titanium/18k gold?
- left one not yet downsized, it had a trauma bump a couple weeks in after getting piercing. Right is downsized.
- aftercare routine is as prescribed, saline solution 2x a day.. after getting downsized my piercing told me to stop with saline and just warm water.
- yes it got snagged a couple of times, and the most recent one this morning.

Should i give up and let it close?

So this is my first (two) lobe piercings - i got them both at the same time because why not. Aftercare was followed diligently with saline solution and drying. One of them was downsized by my piercer because it was doing okay. The other not so much because the first two to three weeks it had a trauma bump from getting snagged. So she decided to not downsize that and let it be so that it gets better. The thing was i was moving then to a place that does not have any piercing shops. So bummer that it did not heal the same way that the other did. Told me to observe and if it gets better that i could then downsize. Now maybe about two months in still has not gone and maybe a little bit worse than before? And yes i still snag it sometimes and accidentally make it move when sleeping. So because of my current situation? Is it better to just give it up and take it out and let it heal? Or is this something that is still very early in the healing process? Is this still a trauma bump or infected in any way? No discharge no bleeding no pain. I guess a little if i do forcively press down on the bump.

Thanks for all your input less

Just got apple care — time to go caseless??

First time getting apple care for my iPhone. Is it time to go caseless?? I’ve never done this on any of my phones. No apple store where i live. So i guess express replacement is the only option for any repair.

Apple Express Replacement Service (Applecare+) experience?

I know it’s always a good idea to have apple care, i just wonder if anyone has had experience doing apple’s express replacement? How was it? Did apple send you the replacement device directly to your home? Any problems with sending your broken device to apple? Before i go ahead and buy apple care for my device, which i really will. Given that there are no apple store or authorized apple service in YK.

Thanks!

Need to change from an ON to NWT number and Public to Telus, company paying for plan..need advice

Moving from ON to NWT in the next couple of weeks for work. I need to switch to an NWT numbe for work purposes. Would it be better to open a new account with telus and just close my public mobile one? I was thinking of the hassle of updating numbers and 2FAs especially with banks. Also, company is paying for the plan so might as well take advantage and switch over to get a phone with it. That's why i cant just switch numbers within public mobile.

Thoughts?
