Thanks to my patient for sharing her procedure, she was a little nervous, but very happy to get that hunk of metal out of her body! I see this a few times a year but this is my first video of it. This generally happens post infection where there is puffy inflammation from the infection that then grows over the back of the earring. Or, it common from metal sensitivities (in particular nickel allergies). It’s common the stem of earrings or the backing is made from nickel, but I have seen it with silver and gold allergies as well.

It never ceases to amaze me how much the body tries to protect you by scarring and connective tissue...happens more often than you'd think. Great job as always.
I study the body for a living and it never ceases to amaze me. Evolution is a fantastic thing
@@hopeliveshere1121 Anatomy and Biology were my favorite subjects in college.
RN for 4 decades and the human body still surprises me!
@hopeliveshere1121 what's truly remarkable is that someone could study that kind of thing for their entire life and still be convinced it just evolved to get that way out of random chance.
I got derms on my chest. Didn't last long until my body forced them out.
I have never heard of an earring back getting lodged in someone's earlobe. I've been wearing posts and dangle earrings for years and while I've had a few infections, nothing like this case. Good work, Greg!
I’ve had this happen to me twice on the same lobe! I bare a deep scar from it, it’s because I kept pushing them right against my skin when it was healing so the skin healed right over it!
She should have removed the stud as soon as she noticed the infection. Stick to hoops until tge hole is fully healed.
I have only worn leverback earrings so they don't fall out and no backing!
My ears have been pierced for 47 years and I’ve never had or seen anything like this either.
Always start with gold or surgical steel posts and backs. I got primary ear piercings 47 years ago and secondary holes 42 years ago. In the '80s, they would instruct you to swab front and back with alcohol daily and then spin both front and back of the earring to ensure your healing skin does not adhere. Even now I find myself spinning my earrings if I wear a pair more than one day (which is very rare). Avoid cheap metal and practice hygiene.
Greg’s the best, with education, explanation, & care for the patient! If there was a contest for the smallest scars, he’d win.

I like the videos, but I always have to watch them without sound. I don't like all of the talking and unnecessary explanations of every little thing.
@mattjack3983 let me guess. You're the type to skip all the cutscenes in videogames by mashing the A button.
Ya can't deny this guy is excellent at what he does. Nothing in the world better than watching someone who's great at his craft.
This. Watch brain and spine surgery on here. 🤯 this guy along with those people who keep you childhood memories and or limbs working it's like... ok I you deserve the 6 digit sports car I gotchu now lol I would not trust my hands on human anatomy.
Totally agree! My favorite channels on RUclips are just people doing their jobs and doing them excellently. Satisfying!
Oh my gosh! I didn’t even know this was possible 😱
Her ear must feel so much better now
it happens all the time 🕰️
@@josmith6684 I'm old and I've never heard of or seen this in my life. How does this happen?
@@blizz2795 the body rejecteds it 😂nasty my daughter no earrings 😘
I doubt she even felt it
@@josmith6684- Yeah but your ear doesn’t just gobble it up. It must take months for that to happen.
I didn't even know it was possible for an earring back to get inside the earlobe! It's interesting how the human body protects itself from foreign objects. My sister was in an accident when she was 12 and glass shards went into her armpit. She had to have extensive surgery and learn to do everything with her left hand. Even so, some tiny pieces of glass weren't removed and they worked their way out through her belly button about 20 years later! Anyway thanks for teaching me something new today! 😊
True....my sister had a similar situation...... car accident, semi truck went through a stop sign and crashed into my sister's car, drivers side, knocked her across the car, and the back of her head went through the passenger door window! She had just stopped to get gas, forgot to put on her seatbelt, was going down the street to pick up her two young daughters, and thankfully she didn't pick them up first! The police officer said that "Not" wearing her seatbelt is what "Saved her from getting crushed to death"! She would have Died if she had put on her seatbelt......and my oldest niece would have been seatbelted behind my sister and would likely have also been crushed to death! My middle niece would have been seatbelted in her car seat, (she was under a year old at the time) and it was covered in Glass! She would have either been cut badly or possibly died too. My sister had glass coming out of her head for a very long time. Her car was totaled! I remember my parents sitting me down to tell me about the accident.....when they said "Toni's been in a car accident" I started crying! I thought she got Killed in the accident! They quickly told me that she was Alive, but injured, and in the Hospital. But yeah......she had glass coming out of her head for a while. ..
It wasn't her "Time" or things would have happened differently. It's all about timing and her Not putting on her seatbelt is what Saved her. But it could have been different..... sometimes a Seatbelt is what Saves someone in a car accident!
The likely reason they ended up near her bellybutton is that they probably got into her lymphatic system and they got caught around the umbilicus because it's a big scar. The body tends to try to wall off foreign bodies and push them out if possible, like with splinters, or they move things like bacteria and viruses to the lymph nodes. There are lymph nodes in the armpit, and that's probably how the shards got in there.
OMG...what a story
😂. 😮. 😢😢😢
@@angelabowman1614 That's the same thing that happened to me, only a different story... mine was a drunk driver T-boned my car with his truck, I didn't have my seatbelt on and the force of the impact, made my forehead go through the passenger's side window. I had two layers of 56 stitches put in my forehead. They tried to get all of the glass out of my skin, but almost 35 years later, I still get a peculiar burning sensation coming through my skin. I get a LED light and move it around my scar and there it is, a very tiny reflective piece of glass coming out. It's amazing how the body keeps getting rid of the glass.
But the body closed this in, didn’t protect it.
This happened to me when I was a kid. I was too afraid to tell anybody because I’d had to BEG to get them pierced to begin with and I didn’t want them to be taken away! It hurt at first but eventually I forgot about it until there was discoloration and THAT my grandma saw. Didn’t take me to a doctor though, that old school depression era grandma just cut it out herself. Lol
@centraltexanonb8598 she would always say “I raised 9 kids and didn’t lose one of them so if you think I’m gonna miss anything now you’re in for a surprise missy!” Lol
@centraltexanonb8598she was an expert! Grandma’s are the best, I was so lucky to be raised by mine. But boy, I didn’t get away with a darn thing under her watchful eye. Lol
@@Suprachiasmaticlol😅 your grandma sounds like good people. Love those tough old grandma's, they can definitely swing a switch if you deserve it😊
Those old school grandmas could probably do brain surgery with a safety pin, peroxide and tweezers
@@maryfolks9368 grateful my Grams wasn’t into the corporal punishment style of parenting of her generation because I was a menace as an unmedicated ADHD kid in the 80s. But she was pretty awesome!
This happened to me when I was about 8 yrs old. I had just gotten my ears pierced and the back of the earring was embedded in my ear. Luckily my Neighbor was a RN & as gentle as she could, she removed the earring, thank goodness she got it out. You did a great job. ❤
As a body piercer I have seen this so many times on multiple parts of the body. It’s so important to use the correct size jewelry when piercing.
but how??? i cant imagine how its possible
I loved that her sibling was whispering questions. So cute.
This legit happened to me overnight once... it was an inch-long jeweled dangle earring. I forgot to take it out before falling asleep and the next morning it had mysteriously vanished, but my earlobe was hard and swollen. I ended up having to push/pull the entire thing out myself. There's a reason I rarely wear earrings anymore...
WhAt!?
Similar thing happened to me too.. My ear lobe got swollen and infected and 'ate' the front of my star shaped stud earring. I was too scared to say anything but my mum noticed and it was Christmas Eve and I refused to go to the doctor's as I was scared and it hurt like hell. Mum ended up lying me down on the living room rug and working it out the back way with lots of cotton wool and surgical spirit (alcohol). Bless my poor mum, she ran a shop so it wasn't as if she didn't already have a million things to do on Christmas Eve!
This actually happened to my older sister when she first got her ears pierced! It happened overnight too it was crazy.
I had the same thing happen to me when I first had my ears pierced, my left earlobe ate the earring
does that happen often to people? i'm still thinking if i should get piercings@@FrizzyFranny82
I can assure you that there is a difference between a back stuck in the piercing hole vs this here. The skin has completed closed and encased this and that most certainly doesn’t happen overnight.
I bet they were peirced with a gun not a needle please go to professionals if your parents don't want to take you to an actual peircer then explain the risks such as infection and extreme blunt force trauma swelling caused by a gun and improperly fit jewelry hell show them this video if they still won't budge then wait till your 18 to get it done right
@@SageusVixous it was done at Claire’s, and I agree that they should not be allowed to pierce ears with how harmful and unsanitary the piercing gun is. My parents weren’t very knowledgeable in piercings and all that so we didn’t know. I was pretty fortunate when I got mine pierced there when I was about 7 and have had no issues. I think my sister’s body just reacts differently because about two years ago she didn’t wear any earrings for a week and her piercings filled in completely, meanwhile I have gone a year without wearing any and my piercing holes are no different. The body is really strange sometimes! I appreciate your concern and if I ever get any other piercings I will do so somewhere like a tattoo place :)
I had this happen to me when I was thirteen and was too scared to tell my parents, so dug it out myself. Of course they found out when my ear was bleeding…
Same 😂
Great job and your patient handled that better than most adults would. I'd of been a big ol' baby😂
Another interesting case Greg, those butterfly backs are the worst! Hard enough to get them off to remove the stud, without getting them embedded!
Also as a fellow redhead, I feel your pain lol. Blushing is also an issue; one second of blush, one hour totally red-faced!!😊😂
My niece switched to the plastic- silicone ones
I was cringing the whole time the back was being removed
You're not supposed to push it all the way, it locks into place
Extremely interesting. Never knew this could happen
I had this happen to me when I was 7. My doctor told me it was due to cheap metal and to see him in 6 months to have them pierced again! I only use silicone backings now because I'm afraid this will happen again!
ALL of your videos are a must see, Mr. Lynch! Awesome video, as usual. Thanks so much to you and your patient! 😊💙💗👍🏻
I guess anything is possible, but this is the first time I’ve ever heard of such a thing . I’m still confused at how does something like this happen ??
I’ve had this happen!
I just pop it out and clean it really well!
Loosen the back!!
One time I woke up in the morning and thought id lost my earring😅
That helps explain how this could happen. Everyone in the comments seems to be asking, HOW? ❤
This didn't happen to me, but I did develop keloids on my pierced ears. I had the keloids removed, but I was still determined to have pierced ears. I ended up with 2 piercings in both ears, and I had no problems. 😊👍
Yes, I had temporary keloids on both ears. But luckily they didn't last long, always change your earrings regularly and this won't happen.
@@bikinibabes666 Thanks for the suggestion, but changing earrings would not have helped me. I have very sensitive skin. I still wear 2 earrings in both ears with no problems. 😊👍
@@bikinibabes666you are very pretty❤
This happened to me when I was a kid too. I wore earrings 24/7 from when I was a baby to around 11 when this happened. The pin and the heart-shaped golden ring around the diamond on my earring got covered up eventually. My dad managed to get it out using tweezers, pincers and a bag of frozen peas to numb my ear without having to cut anything. It took him 3 hours but he wouldn't give up. It's been 15 years and I haven't worn earrings since. The holes have closed up by now too
@@moon-moth1 The laws changed in my country too but 26 years ago it was considered "normal" or "common". Kinda effed up. But the weird part is that I was fine for 10+ years of wearing earrings all the time this but then I got a new pair for my 11th birthday and it's that one that got stuck
For a second, I was questioning my hearing and sanity until Greg clarified there was a child in the room.😂
It makes me wonder how the lobe just kind of consumed the earring. I'd think she would have had an infection or at least an inflammation prior to this event. Great video.
God bless. ❤
Makes no sense to me, either. If earrings are taken out each night at bedtime and the ear lobe is washed with soap and water, I think this would not happen. I wore earrings for about 50 years and never even had an infection except once when I went to a hair dresser and she sprayed my ear lobe. I was on my way to work and by the time I got back home, it had become infected. I just kept cleaning it with alcohol and it cleared up in a couple of days.
@@readytogo3186 Because now they tell people, right after piercing, to keep the earrings in continuously, just rotate them and clean around the area with rubbing alcohol until the hole is established. Unfortunately, my skin is very reactive to any foreign body (I can't wear earrings for more than a few hours, even the solid gold or niobium posts), and I have caught these types of events more than once on myself, even after years of wearing earrings. It happens so fast, and can get so painful to mess with, and like our host said, once the swelling goes down, the skin may have grown over. They prob should have taken the poor kid to the doctor once the swelling started, but live and learn, I guess. :P
@@readytogo3186yeah they told me not to take my earrings out for the first few months I had them, until they healed. If you take them out that early they close up again.
@@etainapgwynnedd827 Understood. I always have to wear gold; I'm allergic to anything else, so I understand where you're coming from. I took mine out, cleaned my ears and the earrings and put them back in right then. The object is to keep them from healing up with the earring back inside your ears! At least that's what I did. Of course, I pierced mine myself, so nobody was around to tell me not to take them out!! I'm sure it would have been easier to just turn them and clean them! 😊
@@Suprachiasmatic You take them out, clean your ears and the earrings and put them back in right then. The object is to keep them from healing up with the earring back inside your ears! At least that's what I did. Of course, I pierced mine myself, so nobody was around to tell me not to take them out!! 😊
How do you let it get to the point where it’s fully grown over and that heavily scarred?
Probably too afraid to tell her parents
Can happen if you wear earrings that are too tight or don’t have a big enough backing. Stay safe everyone!
Edit: I forgot! If your ear swells up (like it can when you get the piercing done for the first time or put it under any kind of new stress) it can also kind of surround the earring. This almost happened to me when I started using gauges for the first time.
So it swells and then kinda eats the earring. I’ve never heard of this
How long did she leave it there? That's a lot of scar tissue to have to cut through to get it out.
Removing dermal anchors is easier.
Mine certainly was... Because it decided to remove itself by pushing itself out BELOW and creating a whole new hole! 😅
Makes me happy that, for 53 and 45 years of having ear piercings, I never sleep in my earrings. My skin Keloids so I suspect I would have a large scar/bump.
I don't sleep in them either.....
How did it get stuck? Also how long has it been there? This is fascinating! Thanks Greg you never disappoint, you bring us so many interesting cases to watch.
My guess is the back was pushed on too tight. Happened to me but opposite. The earring front went in my ear.
if your skin does not want a earrings 😂you no about it
Wow! Nice change of pace! Didn't expect that huge backing!
human body: I don't want this foreign thing in here!!!
also human body: ... but now I'm keeping it!!!
That’s crazy!! I’ve never knew that could happen!! Thanks for posting!!
I thought the body would encapsulate the foreign object and over time the body would cause an infection or an abscess that needed to be drained. I didn't think the body would try to integrate the metal.
It never occurred to me that connective tissue would try so hard to incorporate a piece of metal so tightly! I assumed it would only form a coat around the metal and then forget about it. Boy was I wrong! Not that I suggest it for anyone else but, personally I would have just said, "Dear Doctor---- just take off the whole ear lobe. I never wear earrings anymore on that ear! Chop chop, please." I know you wouldn't do it but I am just not very patient. This was a GREAT LESSON for that younger sibling on unintended consequences and why even teens might be to young and irresponsible to get piercings anywhere. And to think a lackidazical parent let this go on for so long the ear didn't want to let go of the earring back! What were they all thinking?Anything?
It's possible the parents just didn't know. Kids try to hide stuff like this, don't want to make a fuss, or fear the consequences. My parents wouldn't let my sister stretch her ear piercings, but she did so anyway, and just wore her hair over her ears if she had them in at home. It's not like a parent would go out of their way to watch their kids' lobes. They might've only known once it became discoloured.
I had a belly button ring, and when I was pregnant, it started to stretch. I had to have my Dr cut it off!
Yeah I’ve heard that you should take it off while pregnant, would you reccomend that?
I actually had a similar thing happen to me 25yrs ago. My ears closed up around one of the studs and my doctor has to cut it out. My doctor had the piercing studs sent to the lab and they came back positive for bacteria contamination that occurred PRIOR to the piercing itself. With those lab results, I was able to file a claim with the company that did my piercing and had them reimburse me for not only the original cost of the piercing, but my doctor bill as well.
OH MY GOD THIS HAPPENED TO ME!!!
I got my ears pierced right before a sleepaway camp when I was like 11 and accidentally pressed them too tight. Three days later the skin completely grew over the stud. I went to my doc afterwards but my pediatrition just ripped them out the back with no warning, let alone anesthesia. I'm so, so glad this patient got much kinder treatment.
Your patients give us the best presents. 😉 Glad the procedure went so smoothly for her.
How do you get that stuck inside of your earlobe in the first place?
Your home memories are great❤❤
This shows why dermal implants work. The implant is made with a similar shape, and the skin grows into the holes just like this earring back.
That was crazy!! How does the backing get inside your earlobe? I have never seen that. Hope you are all healed and thanks for sharing 👍
When it happened to me it was a combination of infection, and wearing a stud and post thing waaaay too tight. It more grew over it rather than got pulled inside
Definitely one of the best procedures yet.
Also, definitely a good reminder that gold or platinum is the way to go. It wouldn't prevent it from getting embedded, but it shouldn't break down or react.
Oh my goodness!This was a crazy extraction. Great job, Dr. D.!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
yes
To me that looks insane! And i have 5 piercings in my ears.. and allergic to cheap metal, can only use gold or silver. But so many people commenting that it happen to them/someone they know, im truly shocked
Holy crap that is really stuck in there 😲😲😲! Thank you both for sharing.
"Giant earring?" Yea ok. You have a growing base. You don't have resort to dishonesty to get views. Stating what was actually in her ear lobe in the video title would have brought the same amount of people to the video.
@nreeldeep1 Actually, that backing is one of the biggest in its style. There are 2 larger sizes, but not commonly used. So, for that style of backing, it is giant. Meaning Greg was being honest.
I had this happen to me when I was a child, around 5/6 years old! My mom said it was the strangest thing to see it removed. I still remember as if it were yesterday! But it’s nice to see the removal from a different perspective this time 😅 Always a pleasure to watch your videos.
How long had that been in her ear? Blows my mind!!!
This happened to me before, but with the metal thing u put on the end instead of the earring itself. The doctors didn’t believe it was in there so my mom took it out herself tugging through my hole for hours. Once it finally came out I never wore earrings again, it was traumatizing
Im glad you put on there that that voice was her sibling! When I was just listening to the video for a minute or so and thought i was losing my mind, and the voices were coming back. JK hahahaha. Merry Christmas Mr. Popzit
This happened to my daughter, but hers went the other way (while she was sleeping the back got pulled super tight and it sucked the stud into her ear! Then when it started to close up it pushed the back off leaving a tiny stud trapped in her ear lobe.) we ended up in the ER because her entire ear turned maroon and was hot to the touch. I was upset because I told her there was no way it closed up like that in the 10-ish hours she slept and the Dr said the ear actually heals super fast and earrings get stuck in there more often than you’d think! I’d never even imagined it could happen it was pretty wild.
How can this happen?!?
0:51
omg the little whispers are so cute 😭😭🥹
when i was probably about 5 or 6, a metal backing got stuck in mine too. thankfully it wasn’t in there as long as hers, so there was no scar tissue holding it in. my mom just popped it out like a blackhead lol.
Yes, I had to do that, when it ALMOST happened to me.
My wife was afraid of needles and never got her ears pierced and I think it makes her so unique and beautiful.
I would absolutely have made a right mess digging that out myself. How can people go about for god knows how long with these things in them!?!
Depending on your level of pain tolerance, it can be no more than a little itch or tiny irritation until you get used to it, and then you keep putting it off, because it isn't that bad, and then you end up here. It sucks to have skin that reacts to just about anything in it. I can't even wear earrings for more than a few hours without swelling and discharge, no matter the post composition.
Holy Moly…. How in the heck could that get completely embedded inside the earlobe, and even more astounding WHY would anyone not get it removed ASAP? Never ceases to amaze me how long people will put up with some of the things I see being removed/popped, etc.
Totally agree, why do they leave things go so long, I thought it might have something to do with the way Americans have to pay for medical treatment. In Australia we have a Medicare system where you can go to emergency at the local hospital or go to a doctor and pay up front and receive a certain percentage of your money back into your nominated bank account. But we all pay a Medicare levy that comes out of our wages. I’m not an expert on this it’s how I understand it. That’s why I thought people in America leave things go, I’m probably completely wrong and someone will correct me on this.
there's a number of folks in the comments sections sharing why *they* didnt get theirs out lmao
There are a million reasons why someone would let this or any other medical complication go. Be thankful you can’t understand having to make that choice.
Why would you let it get that bad? Why wouldn't you notice that your skin is covering up over an earring?
Damn doc. Poor kid. Great job
Those bigger butterfly backings are supposed to prevent this. Weird case, but glad she got relief😊
You see this two to three times a year? I would have never thought this was that common. I can’t even understand how this happens.
Very gentle kind doctor. We need more doctors like him.
I never knew that this was a thing. Another interesting video!
When this heals, if she wants to get her ears pierced again please tell her to research APP piercers close to her! They’ll fit her with implant grade titanium flat-back jewellery that should be long enough to prevent this from ever happening again and give her great aftercare instructions 😊
I was shocked 😮 Thank you, Doctor!
Ouch that looked painful, I bet she’s so relieved now. My skin is so sensitive I can’t wear earrings anymore not even gold it irritates me so bad, my ear lobes get so red, itchy and inflamed.
Hello Greg. Thanks for the videos. Really enjoyed the childhood memory video. Merry Christmas to you and your family. I have had this happen when I was younger and it hurts like crazy when they take it out at a hospital. They don't put in enough pain relief. Lol thought I was the only red head that when I rubbed my neck it stays bright red. Thanks
Oh my gosh
Wow! Did not know that this could happen. Great job! ❤
I know this is a dumb question, but how do you not know it’s in there?
Thanks for your videos. Always very informative!
Didn’t look that easy to me glad she came to see you Mr. Popzit
That was a fascinating one. Thanks for sharing.
Oh I had the exactly same surgery. I remember my doctor was really happy to do that. He wanted to show me the taken earings(in blood)... he looked so excited...
The poor girl has got a dry scalp condition too
Ladies...take your earrings out at least every few days to clean the earrings and holes! If you have oily skin you may need to remove them daily to clean them. If you have any kind of reaction remove them as well. Also don't put the backs on super tight. If you need more support then get some of those clear support backs. Lots of people with pierced ears have been told for generations that the holes will close back up after they're healed, and while they may shrink down, they don't close back up. My second row were pierced when I was a teen, about 20 yrs ago, I haven't had earrings in them for over a decade, and with a little earlobe massage I can easily put posts back in, so don't be afraid of taking your earrings out and leaving them out.
I came here to say, her eyelashes are on point.
How ?
I was wondering the same thing. Having worn earrings, stud, hoop etc., since I was 15 (now 67) I've never had that happen to me and I sleep with my earrings in.
@Pythonaria I would just think that you would notice that something was wrong a long time before it got to this point. I'm not criticizing the patient, but I don't understand how it got this extreme.
You would think her mother would have noticed that ear looking black!
My husband just recently removed one in urgent care. To quote him ‘“ It was a pain in the butt to remove”. By the way, he is a PA who grew up in San Diego and now lives in Northwest Ohio 😂
The human body is amazing! No idea this could happen.😮
What happens when someone lacks the intelligence to go hey my ear is infected, I'll remove my earrings & allow it to heal.
And by someone you mean a child?
@@Suprachiasmatic I mean the parents.
@@miss_mishthat’s not what you said, but ok.
@Suprachiasmatic well a child does lack the intelligence, but it's a parent that has the responsibility with a child. An adult with the same problem is purely responsible. It isn't hard.
@@miss_mish 😂
I have heard that foreign bodies e.g. sewing needles can travel through your body, lucky this would not have moved.
This is why I stopped wearing earrings. I loved my pierced ears, I loved my real diamond studs (family heirloom that is now sadly gone forever), but holy hell. Those damned clamps were a NIGHTMARE. I could get the earrings out to clean them no problem, but getting them back in basically blind was a total pain. Then any kind of minor inflammation in the earlobe can cause something like this, and I often had cysts in my earlobes exactly in the piercing spot. I figured, dumbly, that once I got my ears pierced the cysts would stop forming lol It just made things a lot messier and crusted up my backings (the exact same kind and these ones) and I could not get them back in again. I wanted studs with those huge hook backings, but those were near impossible to find back in 05; no idea if they even make them now or not. Funnily enough, once I stopped trying to wear the earrings the cysts never reformed lol
Lynch is always calm, patient and thoughtful compared to other dermatologists on RUclips. Saw a couple of Dr. Derm videos where the surgeries looked like assault the way he was digging into the patients.
Dr Greg is SO SKILLFUL and KIND to his patients. God bless you and your family at Christmas - John 14:6
I thought it was common sense that you MUST remove and clean your piercings. How does this happen? Soap and water people!! Rubbing alcohol also works wonders!!!!
Are you hungover, what’s with the glasses in the dark room?
Great removal. Some of us wear the same earrings everyday and forget to take them out every couple months to clean as shampoos, conditioner, sprays, gels etc. will build up and get smelly or start to be absorbed into ear if new. So I take off every three months, clean back of ear and earrings and put back in, to prevent. Thanks for sharing this, it can happen to anyone. My mother had difficulty with earrings keeping the hole open, wanted to close up and grow over, could be you too. Sweet young lady. When it heals must buy new awesome earrings
Love the town you grew up in.quaint,beautiful,and so the opposite of where you now live.bet you miss all the trees and neighbors
Question: why does the body retain it instead of trying to expel it like a splinter? Size of object?
For our body to be breaking down metal that's truly amazing. I thought only dirt and melting could do that
This is why I use the backs that have the big round plastic washer around them!!
Please thank your patient for being willing to be filmed.
This is a perfect example (one of many) why I hate earrings!!!
I had assumed it would pop right out, I forgot in the way it sucks it into the ear would be enveloping it in tissue. This was a very interesting pop! ❤️❤️
This happened to me. My grandfather had given me a pair of earrings that I wore all the time. When I finally decided to change them I realized one was very stuck. My mom had to take me to the doctor to have it removed surgically.
Might I suggest a foreign body removal playlist?? So interesting.
I nearly had something similar to this happen to me after I got a second ear piercing. I got them pierced with these purple titanium balls, and oh boy, that spot on my earlobe got infected easily. One of my earlobes nearly swallowed the earring into my skin, and I had those earrings removed. Then my ears kept getting infected due to wearing cheaper earrings often, and I had to take a well deserved break. This past June, I had my first ear piercings re-pierced, and I've since been wearing gold earrings frequently and cleaning my ears often (maybe not as often as I should, but they rarely hurt anymore).
I feel awful that this happened to this poor girl and hope she's doing better since this procedure (I kinda cringed seeing the back of the earlobe get sutured).
Thanks for sharing where you grew up. Beautiful countryside. My goodness that is a massive deck.
My ears had horrible reactions to most earring posts- so much swelling and irritation. I switched to threadless implant grade titanium labrets and have not looked back! Highly recommend for anyone with sensitivities.
How long was that in there for this to happen? He didn't notice she didn't have the backing to her earring when she removed it? It would be hard to miss a backing and/or earring being stuck in the ear. I always put my backings back on mine after removal, so I'd be wondering where the backing went
