So, I did my flat myself, which I now regret, but what’s done is done. I did it on Friday with a cannula needle and put in a 10 mm bar. Since Saturday it hurts, and also on Saturday and Sunday, I was wearing headphones. Now it’s Friday, and it still hurts at light touch and long after touch, and is very swollen. There is no pus at all. The 10 mm labret fits snug. For my cleaning routine I use isotonic seawater on it I just spray it because touching hurts.

What should I do? Should I go to the doctor? Should I take it out? Should I just leave it be??? Is it infected??

Tried to add some pictures, but it’s hard to take a photo of my own ear.
