Check the back of the earing that your trying to put in. Is it sharp? Is it skinny? If it is then use that. If its not, maybe you could find an old earring you could try. Thatlle go through better. Have you taken a shower? The back could be clogged with shampoo or soap or somthing. If it is, it wont hurt at all to push it through.
If its skin closing up, im warning you it might hurt a little bit but really not bad.
Take some Neisporin(sp) and put it on the pack (the pokey part) of your earring. then put it on, going from the back instead of the front, just to poke out the hole. Then you can take it out, wash it off and put it on regularly.
