Question about English (UK)
My lobe piercings haven't healed completely yet because it's only been a month since i got them pierced. The problem is that every time i take them off to clean them putting them back takes ages. When i put the stud in through the whole it gets stuck halfway and it doesn't come out on the other side of the hole. Last time it took me a good 5 minutes to get each right. Does this sound natural?
