i just got my left tragus pierced yesterdayy and i hear that they take forever to heal. like 3-6 mths. i clean it twice a day (soap it up - salt water - antibiotics- nd i spin it just a little) well anywayss basketball season starts next month on november 7th and i wnt be able to keep the ring in. but i cnt remove the ring because i dnt want it to get infected or close up or smthn bad to happen. what should i do??
and if you have anymore tips about my piercing, they're appreciated also. [= thnks
do you think ill be able to put a stud earring in it next month? or is that a bad idea.

i was just thinking about covering it up with a small bandaid nd telling the refs i had to get stitches and thats the reason why the band aid was there.
