not really an expert because when i worked there i was apprenticing to be a piercer. Patsmear would actually be the expert on this one since he has been piercing for like 100 years...lol...i kid, i kid. But anyway, if he had kept the ring in, then no, the scar tissue would not have built up like that. It would have built up...but not to that extent. Please remember that scare tissue, keloids, etc....all dependd completely on that particular person and their body. A good rule of thumb would to be think of all the times you have been cut, scraped, burned, etc.... then think of how it healed. Some people's bodies just automatically build up an assload of scar tissue to compensate for the wound. It's one of the great unknown mysteries of the human body....again...glad you got it taken care of bret....Tommy
