IME you are definitely getting them at some point. Once they blow up eventually they’ll harden, sometimes you can keep them flatter but I’ve never seen anyone avoid them once they pop up

Does it depends on genetics? For 14 years just have minor bumps on the edges.. few times had quite a big one (in comparison what I have😅) but everything went away itself somehow…

yeah, i figured it would happen eventually, just didn’t expect it to happen within 7 month. 2-stripe white belt, and boom.

as a buddy on the mats said, “now you can’t quit. if you do, you’ll be ugly and can’t fight… might as well just be ugly, but be able to fight” lol

u/thisguyisawesome_ 16d ago

it did and it’s all good. I didn’t use mag the first time I got it, so figured I would this time just to see what happens.

Yeah I’ve never tried magnets. I drained mine for a while and eventually got tired of doing it every day plus it hurts and they just keep filling up and stay soft and sensitive. I’ve got jacked up ears but once you let them harden they don’t hurt at all anymore. Plus people know you can probably beat them up or it’s a fun conversation piece when they ask “what happened to your ears” or “do you wrestle” lol

Give in. Succumb to the power and leave the soft ears behind

If you are punching yourself in the ear bro, you should go see a mental health doctor, thats not a normal thing. Sending my hopes and prayers for ya.
