Fishywoman‘s son has an ear piercing that has been growing and continues to grow a keloid. They figure that it’s growing either way, so why not let him keep the jewelry in? Anyway, it was done with a gun six years ago when he was eight… I assume surgery to remove it is being planned.
(Note: my advice would be to take out the jewelry to minimize the growth as much as possible).
