Juan, I would not.
But you should ask the people who do the piercing. They should know for sure. They should be trained to know that.
Good luck! =)



What you are describing sounds like a keloid. It is a growth of excessive scar tissue. You could also have a cyst of some type. I don't know who is piercing your ear, but a professional will not pierce through this area. There is a danger of further scarring or infection. A doctor would be the best person to advise you and to perform the piercing for you.
