It depends. Has the piercing "tightened" around the ring, or has the skin grown over the piercing itself?

Piercings often will grow tighter as they heal, this does not mean you should force your jewelry around to "loosen it up". Just let it heal and over time your body will accommodate the foreign piece of metal.

If it's totally embedded and the jewelry is UNDER the skin, go to a doctor. Now. Not tomorrow. Right now. It must be removed by a medical professional immediately.

Can you change your earring after 1 week of piercing to a different stud earring?

Yes, you can change your earring after one week of piercing, but it's generally recommended to wait at least 6 to 8 weeks for earlobe piercings and longer for cartilage piercings. This allows the piercing to heal properly and reduces the risk of infection or irritation. If you do decide to change the earring sooner, make sure to use a hypoallergenic material and ensure that the piercing is healing well. Always consult with your piercer or a professional for personalized advice.
