Is It Too Early To Remove My Ear Piercings?

As I said in another question, I got my ears pierced recently. Well I noticed on one side that it's a bit lower than the other side and I kind of wanted my piercings to match. I wanted to take the earring out but I'm afraid it will get infected. I just want it to close up. Do you think it's too soon to take it out? Should it just wait for it to heal and then remove the piercing? Also, sometimes some people have scar tissue inside their ear lobe which feels like a little bead from the healing process. Will that form from taking it out too soon? Thank you! (:

You can take it out now and as long as you keep it clean it should heal nicely.

I'd take it out now, the sooner the better if you want it to properly heal over. Keep it clean as you would anyway if it had just been pierced. Its probably less likely to get infected with no earring in.
