My newest piercings appear to be healing very well:
I made the helix part bleed a little on Monday because I was too heavy handed with my cleaning but I’ve learnt my lesson and have started to be a little more gentle when cleaning them.
On Monday, it was freezing outside but I didn’t feel it on the ear but it made my ear puff up quite a bit and it kind of felt like I’d had something clipped on the rim of my ear; the barbell I have in my helix piercing isn’t long enough to accommodate super-puffed ears.
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday night I couldn’t sleep well because I kept rolling over onto my left hand side, which would wake me up (they tend to hurt when you squash them!) and keep me from sleeping properly afterwards because I’d worry about doing it again.
My body appears to have gotten used to not rolling over in my sleep because I’m sleeping properly again.
Other than those little problems, the new holes are settling down nicely and feel fine. I have to keep my hair up most of the time though because I keep snagging the piercings and I worry that my hair might have a bit of dirt that will transfer to the new holes and give me an infection…
I think my mum has probably noticed them by now but she hasn’t mentioned it yet!
