If you find that the tissue around the piercing is swelling, red, hot to the touch, painful or if there is unusual secretions, there is a very good chance of infection. You should remove any piece of jewelry, and clean the affected area with antibacterial liquid soap and lots of warm running water. Use this also to clean your jewelry. If symptoms do not go away within 24 hours you should see a medical professional.
The most common drawback of getting your ear gauged is that the hole may never close. If you find that in a few years you no longer wish to have your ear gauged, you might be stuck with it.

The area around an infected piercing may be swollen, reddish, sore to the touch, discharge puss or accumulate crust which returns after being removed.
From experience, if it does get infected, it will close, or at least try to. If you decide to keep your gauges out for a while, yes the hole will shrink. It depends on how long you keep the gauge out of your ear.
Yes, gauged ear lobes can be repaired through a surgical procedure called earlobe reconstruction. This procedure involves removing excess tissue, reshaping the earlobe, and closing the hole left by the stretching. Recovery time can vary depending on the extent of the repair needed.
I mean, I think so. I currently have an infected gauge in my left ear and have been suffering jaw pain and ear pain. So I really think it can. Im still trying to figure out why it's infected!!

No, it will just make the hole bigger and if you let it strink down it may not return back to a normal looking ear piercing.
its infected
As in a flesh tunnel ear gauge? What's the point of a non-gauged earring? No point. Just jewelry.
