Growth on Tragus Piercing
"I got my tragus pierced and it was doing ok for six weeks so i stopped cleaning it and began lying on it again when sleeping. It started to get sore and I thought it was getting infected so I began cleaning it again. I noticed a lump growing on the inside of it... it wasn't solid and when I touched it, it really hurt. it got smaller after a few days of applying a salt-water solution to it. however i then noticed a similar lump growing on the outside of the piercing. i ended up taking the piercing out. the lumps are still there but i think they're getting smaller. if i wait for them to go away... will they? and will it be ok to get the piercing re-done or will the same thing happen again? maybe the jewelery had something to do with it, i had a bar in it... would a ring be better?" - starlet_11

What is a tragus?
for removing that ink you can use the hydrogen peroxide and other soft soap.
i think she meant he actually tattooed himself, not just drew on his skin…..
tragus is a fleshy prominence at the front of the external opening of the ear
