Have split ear lobe

2017-03-10 12:39:02
Hi, one of my ear lobe is almost split. I cannot wear any small ear rings. Is there anyway I can get it stitched? If so how long will it take to heal after the stitch. When can I start wearing the ear ring?

Ask for ear lobe repair after visiting surgeon or dermatologist. Stitches will b healed within 7 to 10 day. Avoid using heavy earings.
