Uabassoon, that had to hurt, didn't it? I mean it don't look that bad. The plug? looks really great! Thanks for showing me.
Actually it doesn't really hurt. You are only supposed to stretch it a little bit at a time to prevent scar tissue from forming. Then in between each stretch I would wait a few months to make sure it was 100% healed before I went on to the next size. Afterwards my ear was a little tender for an hour or two but then it was fine.
