Submitter comment: So hey guys, this is me. I decided it’d be okay to skip from 1/2s to 5/8s with silicone, I thought my lobes were healthy enough to get away with it. My ears obviously infected and I’m definitely downsizing and cleaning it constantly. I thought this picture would be appropriate for this Tumblr. What’s awful: The fact that I skipped sizes and that my ears are obviously infected. How it can be fixed: DOWNSIZE! I’m not gonna be wearing jewelry in my ears for a while :/ Moderator comment: IF YOU THINK YOUR EARS ARE INFECTED GO. TO. A. DOCTOR. NOW. noooooooooooow. now. -Kat

  2. smashedcupcake said: That just looks painful!
  3. nude-forsatan said: ALSO, put some jewelry back into it, or else it’ll heal w/ the infection underneath the skin xx :)
  4. mistermetalface said: They don’t look infected to me, just pissed off. But hey if she really thinks they are, yeah, medical attention would be smart
  5. wiggle-weasel said: To be infected there must be a virus. your ears are probably just pissed-the-fuck off.

  7. myearsareringing said: You thought (beyond skipping sizes, which I can’t even comment on) that stretching with silicone would be a good idea? Nobody’s lobes are healthy enough to adjust to a new size with silicone. Big no-no there alone.
  8. does-not-pollinate reblogged this from awfulmodifications and added:
    Not only were sizes skipped but you stretched with silicone!
  9. skullfly said: I had an infected ear lobe once but luckily caught it early so I was just prescribed some cream to clear it up, but I did have to remove all jewelry and the hole closed up.
