Jewelry in stretched holes

Hi guys! Soon, I'm planning on my first stretch, up from my current well-healed 10g lobes to an 8g, and my target size is 6g. I know I'll have to wait a few months between 8g and 6g, and I need stationary jewelry to heal around (like plugs or captives). What I'm curious about is, do I leave...

Blowout?

Well, I have just recently started stretching my ears. I got them pierced at a 8g and then waited a month and a half or so before I decided to try to go to a 6g. I use a sea salt spray about 4 times a day. I got the 6g tapers and a set of 6g metal tunnels, so I put the tapers in they went in with a little...

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
