How likely is it for me to get an infection with a cartilage ear piercing & sensitive skin?

I have sensitive skin & a nickel allergy; therefore i am afraid i will be more likely to get an infection with a cartilage ear piercing. I know to use a sterilized needle, and never go to a place w/ a gun. Also, how much does it hurt?!?

What are these lumps on my ear lobe near my piercing?

I’ve had my ears pierced a long time ago when I was a kid, but I always get these lumps in the skin of my ear that get swollen and start hurting when I touch them. Then they go away and come back, this happens in both ears but I’m not sure if the piercing has anything to do with it. What are they?

How long will my ear piercing take to heal?

Bonexx89 asked:


Okay the back of my ear is cut where i pierced it. its just the top layer of skin is gone around the piercing so a little pink circle surrounds it, this is only at the back of my earlobe, the front is okay. I wouldn’t have a problem with it but it makes it noticeable that my ear is pierced and i don’t want my folks to find out. how long will it take to heal??
