You shouldn't be taking out your earrings when the piercings are still new.
Try washing your ear and the earring. Then gently tap it into your ear, it might hurt so do it slowly. It's happened to me before.

You should not be taking you earrings out if they are newly pierced. You should wait 2 months before you change the earring an 6 months before you leave it out for a long period of time. The best thing you can do now is numb your ear with ice and put the earring through again. It actually doesn't hurt as much as you'd think, just a pinch. Oh, and make sure you turn and clean it twice a day. Hope this helped. Good luck.

If anything, there is probably a thin layer of skin that has grown over the holes, this is very normal and happens often to me when I leave my earring out for too long. When you have the time, take your earring, and stretch out your ear and slowly insert the earring to break the skin. It should not hurt much, most likely not hurt at all since the layer of skin is thin, but it will probably startle you to feel the skin break. Once you get the earring in just lightly was the piercing to keep it clean. You should not take your earrings out for up to 6 months after fresh piercings. At night, at least keep small studs in to help keep the piercing open, and then you can switch them out the next day for the ones you want to wear. Also always keep the piercing and the earrings clean. Normally they give you a bottle of solution to do this, or you can buy one at most places where they do piercings for pretty cheap.

Oh honey no. You are NEVER supposed to take out the jewelry in a healing piercing.
My heart just stopped. Okay. Ears take 3-6 months to heal. During healing time, you are NEVER supposed to remove jewelry unless the current jewelry is made of improper/cheap metal. New piercings should always have surgical stainless steel jewelry.
Another thing: NEVER FORCE the jewelry back in. You said it was hard to get the jewelry in every morning, reason being is at night, your body works to close this hole, then you go an force it back open. You should never force the jewelry, you can rip your fistula (tube of skin inside) and cause scar tissue to form, it can cause infection if you are not cleaning the piercings well and it will be VERY painful.
Chances are, if you were taking out the jewelry at night, you didn't listen to your piercer or you went to some cheap crap place like Claire's. My advice to you is leave them out, your ears will fully heal in about 2-6 weeks and at that time you may have them re-pierced by a true professional who will explain to you the correct aftercare for your piercings.
If you need more detail, message me and I'll help ya out.

I think I have a solution, because it happen to me ones, well it sound like is staring to close so you need to get some ice put it in your ear( it will numb the ear )so when you feel it really numb get a potato a placed in the back of your ear, so your skin don't stretch to much, then get your earring and put it in the hole were was the first time don't take the ea ring off for a couples of weeks clean the ear with alcohol every morning.
Well I hope it works for you, it works for me. Good Luck.

Same thing happened to me. I pushed the earring in through as far as I could, then I pushed from the backside of my earlobe with an earring as well. It took some time, but it worked. Good-luck! Once you get the earring back in or re-pearce them, don't take the earring out for a month, or this will happen again.

Re-Peirce it yourself, poke the earring through.
I have did that, I got 'no' scars because I made sure it was poked 'straight' through the original hole. Because your peircing is fresh, there is still a hole there,but starting to grow over. It may sting a bit, but this way is going to save you alot of extra money.
Then leave them in for at least 3 months or more.

just slowly put them back in. it might hurt a little, but it will go back in. i would recomend leaving them in, 100% for about a week. remember that they might be pierced at an angle so it might be hard to find the hole. best thing i've found, is find the hole from the back, put it in as far as you can, then put one in from the front and find the one from the back, then just follow that path.

If you can get the earrings back in I would suggest leaving them in a couple of months for the skin to heal more. Then they wont close up overnight. It's natural for the human body to try to "heal" itself.
