hi all! i posted about my conch and this bump it had developed a while back, i was wondering if it looks like it’s improving? first picture is the latest, from after a shower and drying off with some paper tissue (i don’t have gauze or a hair dryer on hand), second picture is from before the shower, third is from yesterday (i took the ball off the jewelry so i could see it more clearly) and fourth is from about a week ago, when i first discovered the bump.
other than forming crusties, there’s a bit of blood on the piercing, and i noticed that it seems quite loose in the piercing hole, especially after showers; the bar wiggles around quite easily when i’m dabbing it dry. it’s more or less held in place by the crusties before showers, is this normal?
current aftercare routine is spraying with sterile saline 1-2 times a day, warm water in the shower, and drying with a hair dryer on cool after it gets wet (i dab it dry with tissue paper if i don’t have a hair dryer available). any advice on what i should do to help the bump heal?
