It's simple, if you try to force a gauge into your ear that your ear isn't stretched out to, the skin within that hole can be 'blown' out, this can result in some problems. It can result in some scarring and infections (EK!). The best way to get rid of it is, :sigh:, take that gauge out and let go back in, putting a smaller gauge in it may set you back on your goal, but it's better than what could result from letting it stay blown out.
