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.

    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

    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.

    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.

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.

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.

    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.

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.

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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
