Question Posted Thursday February 24 2011, 2:28 pm
My earing is stuck in my ear. I can twist the earing and its fine, but my problem is the back won't come off!!!! I can twist the back but i can't push it forward or pull it backwards.
The earing as been in my ear for a while but I have never had this problem with other earings. Yea i should know better but i'm busy with work at the moment so some times i forget to change my earings.
What should i do? I tried babies oil but the back still won't budge. Should I keep twisting the back to see if it'll come off on its own? Or should I try some other liqud product? HELP!!!!!!!!!

If you can't do it, get someone else to basically just pull the back whilst pulling the front at the same time. May take quite a bit of force, but it should become unstuck :) [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]

It did hurt quite badly form her reaction but it only lasts a couple of minutes. So i'm sorry but your gonna have to pull it out there :/ i hope this helps good luck xx [ AskSinz's advice column | Ask AskSinz A Question ]
