Blood blister/lump on my tragus piercing?
I've had my Tagus pierced for a month, it has a blue curved bar in I think titanium.
Just recently it has developed what looks like a tiny blood blister above it, kinda the same colour as my skin but a little browny pinker.
I rang up a piercer and he said it's because I have not been twisting/rotating it and to do that and to apply tcp/dettol to the bump as often as I can to shrink it.
It feels swollen after so I am wondering if I am doing the right thing,
Also he told me sea salt soaks arnt really good unless you match it to your exact tears/sweat saltiness so I'm a little stumped,
I just want to know if the bump will go and if it will what's the best way to get rid?
I'm terrified of it getting bigger and damaging my ear :-S
Tragus piercing with a curved barbell? That's weird. Surely you can't turn that all the way round? Your piercer doesn't know what he is talking about. There is no need to turn or move the bar while it is healing, the skin wont grow around the bar. For the blood blister, try just cleaning it with 1/4 of a teaspoon of sea salt into a mug of boiling water. The less salt the better, you don't need a lot. Leave it to cool and then clean around the piercing. If after a few weeks this isn't working, try tea tree oil. Use a Q-tip to apply the tea tree oil to just the bump not the piercing.

Choosing Your Wedding Ring
Selecting rings for your wedding is a fun and important activity. There are so many options on offer - diamond wedding rings, antique and vintage rings, platinum rings and ceremony ring sets. However if you are looking for something unique, it can be difficult to find. Here are some tips on how you can find the perfect ring for your loved one.
Many people think that the best wedding ring is a diamond ring, with a large stone. This is the classic route and won't go out of fashion, but a diamond ring can cost a lot of money, especially if you buy it on credit planning to pay it off in monthly instalments.
My first piece of advice is that you should shop for wedding rings as a couple. This way each of you can find something that you like. If you are going to wear your ring all the time, consider practicality of it. The material should be durable, and the ring should be comfortable as well as a design that will match whatever you wear.
When most people are about to buy their wedding rings, they think they are going to go to the jeweller and buy something that is ready made. However, it is often a good idea to buy your diamond separately, and have it mounted later. The advantages to this are the cost, a diamond by itself costs much less than one already mounted on a ring.
There are a wide variety of diamonds in different shapes and sizes. The shape of your diamond should complement the shape of your fiancée's hands. While most popular shapes are round you can also find oval, heart and marquise shaped diamonds. For example, if her fingers are long and narrow an oval shaped diamond would be better than a round one. This will help you to create a unique ring.
Having a colored diamond can make your wedding ring very unique. The majority of diamonds are clear, but did you know that you can get them in other colors? Pink and blue diamonds are very beautiful but rare, yellow diamonds are the most popular of colored diamonds.
Most colored diamonds on the market are artificially treated to give them color. Especially the strongly colored ones. There is nothing wrong with this technique, but don't let the jewellers make you believe that this is the natural color of the diamond. Naturally colored diamonds are very, very rare and they cost much more than the clear ones.
After you've found your diamond, your next consideration is the material of the ring itself. Yellow gold is the most popular choice, but you can also have rings made from white gold, platinum or titanium. Traditional yellow gold is not terribly unique, and also gold is a soft material. Especially if you go for high calibre 22 or 24 carat gold, it will get scratched with everyday wear.
Platinum wedding rings are more expensive, but they are much more durable. White metal rings would go with most outfits, which is important for a ring that you wear every day. Also if you are looking for a modern, not vintage look you should go with platinum. Titanium rings are another good alternative to gold rings, titanium is extremely durable and is significantly cheaper then platinum.
To find yourself a truly unequalled wedding ring, you will need to shop around and possibly get your diamond first and your ring custom made. Look at what styles are out there; see what you like the most, than you should have no problem picking the perfect wedding ring.
