Skin & Body - March 2007

So, I've been stretching my ear. Ear because one of my ears seems to not take to stretching, so my left ear is at 14 gauge and my right one is currently somewhere between 8 and 6 gauge. My question is based on this; I bought a 6 gauge taper today, and I've only got it in half the way, because it seems to be hurting more than it should. I'm afraid it might swell up like my other ear did (that's why I went back to 14g) and I really, really do not want to start over on my current ear. Let's say it swells, should I take it out, or just leave it in until the swelling stops? I've been slathering on antibacterial goo every hour or so, but I can't seem to get it to go in all the way, because it kinda hurts. Should I just put it all the way through, put on lots of bactroban and hope for the best? The taper is acrylic, and the tunnel I want to put through is stainless steel, but it wouldn't be good if my ear did swell.

ps; can I sleep with a taper in, or will it stab me in the neck? :|

I would very much prefer a lotion that also has either a fresh pleasant scent, or no scent at all. I'm desperate.

can anyone tell me how to get rid of spot scars? I know they may not go away straight away but there must be something to help make them go. I heard eating black grapes helps heal them. But besides that had anyone got any old remedies for this. or anything else? i don't like the idea of any products to use of my face for spot scars but if you really have to name a few then go ahead. all though i won't be willing to try them.

For many years, my arms(above the elbow) have been covered in little red bumps. it almost looks like a rash or maybe zits. I'm frustrated because my arms are very nice except for these strange bumps!
i've tried moisturizing and scrubbing, but nothing seems to work!!

I've been wnting to get a pisces tattoo on my lower back for a while now. My husband doesn't want me to get one, but I do. I tell him that I want to experience something that my dad experienced before he died. He had 2 tattoos and I used to love to look at them. Is that a dumb reason to get one? I feel like it would bring me closer to him.

I got my navel pierced when I was 16, after about a year, I took it out because it was growing out, and was barely hanging on. When I was 19, I went and got it repierced, and this time, it took only 3 months to grow out, because it followed the old scar.
Now, if I got the bottom of my navel pierced, do you think it would grow out? do piercings grow out because your body is still growing? Or is just because you're body doesn't like them? I'm 22 now so I am done growing.
Thank you.

I already plan to get three tattoos even if he doesn't like it. But I would still feel better if he was okay with it as I am a daddy's girl. I'm getting one on my left hip, my right shoulderblade, and the small of my back. The biggest problem is the lower back tattoo, the tramp stamp. He is really against this and says if I get this I'm telling guys I'm easy. Have any good arguements?

It was shown to me and I was stunned - I was silent for 2 minutes. It is tribal-esque and the swelling was, err, significant.

Tell me what you think!!!

p.s. enough of the 'gay' stuff. Yawn...

I have seen in magazines women with dark brown nipples but blond hair and others have pink light colored nipples with black hair. Is this because they have died their hair or does nipple color of the round circle part not have anything to do with hair color? Also what determines how large they are? If they are virgins, breast size, or ??

I finally began dieting and excersizing at my 40 yo. I am losing approximately 3 pounds per week and got rid off 18 pounds so far. My upper body looks great, but my belly, butt and legs are horrible because of cellulite. Can anybody advise me on a good "recepie" to get rid off "cottage cheeze"?

I had my navel pierced in September. I have since lost 15 pounds. It was not done with a ring and now the barbell is turned to the side. Also it looks higher up on my belly then the origianl placement. Is it possible that the weight loss has stretched it out, and will it always stay over to the side? I can push it over to the other side and it don't hurt, but it goes right back to where it was. Please help. Also if you don't like piercings don't bother answering my question. Thanks :)
