Not sure where to post this, but has anybody ever had this happen? She's only 6 and I really don't want to take her to the doctor but don't know what to do and I really don't want to cause an infection.

It happened to my DD14 when she was six. Her dr. said it's pretty common. Who knew? We had to take her to the dr. The skin covered most of the back. The dr. froze her ear and cut it out. Very quick, not too painful because he froze her ear. She was scared of course. Good luck with it!
Been there. We pulled it out ourselves, but that's bacause I am a nurse and I try to stay out of the doctor's office if I can. We cleaned it really well with alcohol.
Sounds like the holes are larger than the children's earrings they are wearing.
