you are probably allergic to gold and silver. go into a body piercers and get some titanium or surgical steel barbells or whatever you prefer, should sort it right out.

Sore?!

I get ya. No, don't think you're allergic dear.
Firstly I can't really make out what it is you're saying. It sounds like a second lobe piercing. In my opinion (I've been ear piercing for Claire's for about a year now) it sounds like you got some kind of an infection the first time round. When you go through the same place again it just re-opens an infection.

If it helps I work in Claire's in the Ilac center. You should pop in and let me have a look at it some time. Just look for the mad one with the pink hair! :P

or just getting pierced with a gun in general is looking for infection and maybe getting a professional piercer to look at it would be the best idea, rather then someone who pierces people with guns.... IMO
