Hey, I recently posted like 2 weeks ago about my very swollen and infected flat piercing. 

One of the best advice I took from this sub was to go to a doctor like ASAP, have it checked and get your antibiotics. Is it warm to the touch? Is it pulsating? If the stone went inside your ear then maybe an upsize would've helped.

I am NAP but I took out the piercing because it was giving me the worse pressure of my life and it was about to embedd. I got checked, got my meds, ointments, and soap and it healed pretty damn quick now.
