“Ear stretching?

i recently stretched from a 8 to a 6 using those little table legs from the pizza boxes. theyre plastic, and my ears seem to be peeling from the inside, i took off some skin that was peeling when i took off my earrings. is this bad? or is it infected cause it was also bleeding and pus came out.
another thing is i am using the daily sea salt soaks, maybe its that thats causing my ears to peel, maybe im using too much.

am i supposed to take off my earrings in order to do the sea salt soaks?”
