i've been stretching my ears for along time, currently they're a 2g. i tried putting i heavy taper in one ear to stretching it by weighing it down, but instead the taper cut off circulation to my ear, and now its ripped in one place and there are big white areas (signifying dead tissue). i only had them in for less than 12 hours. note i did not try to 'stretch' my ear with the tapers, i used them as weights.
what should i do, i dropped down to a lower gauge and am soaking them in warm sea salt water, but i dont kow whats gonna happen to the dead tissue (it hasn't started to fall off)...

I'd call a tatoo parlor that also does body piersing, and your doctor.

White tissue doesn't necessarily mean it's dead tissue, but it is blood starved. When it begins to peel off or turn black, then you know its dead. Does it still have feeling left in it? There really isn't much you can do other than let them heal without all the pressure of stretching your lobes. Soak them like you've done, use antiseptic, and just let them alone.

properly while ever you're stretching your eras its going to injury for the 1st couple of days. Many experts say that skipping 16g is high-quality. in case you relatively cant take the soreness i could propose you strengthen some balls haha or pass forward and purchase the 16g.

I would have no idea, but I'm curious...Why would anyone want to stretch their ears??
