A member asked:
Can i wear big studs after earlobe surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You should wait: If you wear heavy studs too soon after surgery, you may run a risk of ripping the ear lobe, since the tissue is probably still weak from the surgery. Wait for 6 months then you can try but still be careful.
