My girlfriends and I would dip our earlobes in a capful of hydrogen peroxide, and if it sizzed . . . INFECTION! Maybe because I was so vigilant, I spared myself a trip to the ER.JD at I Do Thingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12637216169419014156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208612946672576253.post-77738370175803730862010-05-13T20:48:04.260-04:002010-05-13T20:48:04.260-04:00Kathy: I'm so sorry for freaking you out!!

I had no idea this could even happen. Never heard of it before from anyone I know. But now I can say I do.<br /><br />I'm still feeling dizzy. My God.<br /><br />I cannot wait for the pig post.

It did look freaky, though. Hopefully you will have fully recovered from my horror story by the time your middle daughter starts asking to get her ears pierced. :)<br /><br />suzicate: That was my problem, too--except I discovered that I can wear earrings as long as they're pure gold, not plated. I was so glad to finally have earrings! I now have two holes in each ear.absepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10426282204461264369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208612946672576253.post-81659242602676439592010-05-12T14:08:31.773-04:002010-05-12T14:08:31.773-04:00My sister had a massive infection on both her earl...My sister had a massive infection on both her earlobes after piercing...she didn't show my mom until they looked kind of like yours. Ended up she was allergic to metals...she was devastated...she of course had to let her ears close and can't even wear any jewelry. Actually, there is only one type (maybe platinum) that she can wear, but all she wears is her wedding band.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1208612946672576253.post-70330856403266276372010-05-12T04:23:17.089-04:002010-05-12T04:23:17.089-04:00(Grips her ear and falls down writhing on the grou...(Grips her ear and falls down writhing on the ground as she experiences phantom pain) Auugghhh!!<br /><br />Whoa. Gingah. <br /><br />My 10-year-old kid got her ears pierced last Thanksgiving after months of begging and pleading. My fear was that she'd simply get infections and then let the ears close up.<br /><br />Not that her ear would swallow the foreign body never to be seen again. <br /><br />Um, can't say I have any stories to rival this one.
