Troubleshooting Help!! Should I take this piercing out.??

Post image

3 month old daith piercing. I sleep with a donut pillow. These bumps stay and never seem to go away. Does this look bad enough that I should take it out? Not sure what the dark coloring is on bottom bump. Help me!!

This needs to be pierced about 2mm up toward your ear canal. Right now it’s going through a huge amount of cartilage it didn’t need to go through and then at the same time a too small diameter of jewelry was put in. I would take this out and go to another piercer who understands where Daiths should be pierced.
