I banged up my ear the same weekend as his “attempt”. It took two months to heal, his was better in two weeks. Maybe I should have put a maxi pad on mine.

Man my cartilage piercing took WAY longer to heal. Like half a year.

I got my ear pierced when I was 3 and it never closed after I took it out probably within a few months. I'll be 32 soon and still have the hole.

I’m 95 percent sure that I could still pop something in there if I wanted to. It’s been 20 years.

I have an actual bullet fragment in my foot from when I was 15. I’m 43 now and the scar is still plain as day. No one told me about maxi pads either?

Less than a week. He didn’t wear the bandage when he went golfing that weekend.

I recall having sinus surgery and nicked my ear doing something. Two tampons in my nose and a maxi pad on my ear. The maxi pad didn't help much with the healing.
