    Nasty yellow-like pus?!

    I just stretched my lobes to 0g a few days ago and ever since I've had nasty yellow/clear liquid around the stretch.

    Is it normal? or am I dying? :O

    What does your stretching time line look like?

    Is the pus bloody? Is the fluid opaque or translucent? Is there any pain?

     

    Edit-

    I think I found your issue. According to your profile:

    Currently 4g lobes. Was 2g for a long time and a bad attempt at going to 0g left me no choice but to downsize.

    You joined the forums on 14 June, so it seems to me that less than two months ago you were healing a torn/injured/blown out lobe. I'd suggest the standard downsize and salt soaks, it would also be a great idea to wait several months prior to any additional stretching attempt.

    Also, what the heck happened to this resolution?

     Pictures and backstory would help.

    Ah, gotcha. I don't know how I could have gotten the profiles confused, FireFox has been giving me a whale of a time recently. Sorry for the mix-up.

    Mintyfreak, my original questions still stand.

    Yellowish to clear is typically a sign of just healing. You might have done a little damage when stretching and this is your body healing that damage. If you are super concerned, go see a professional piercer.

    I believe it was torn because it was HELL to get the plug in after the stretch with the taper.

    Its been 18 days later and its fine now (no yellow/transparent/sometimes-bloody pus)...just a little itchy and dry at times.

    Thanks for the help guys!
