Take it out or Ride it out?

hey guys!
so two days ago i got my shoulders pierced [staples! so cute!] but the guy obviously screwed a ball on too tight, and its crumbled.
So now i have a fresh, sore, piercing, that doesnt have a ball to stop it sinking into my skin and healing over.
I cant go and get a new ball for another 2 days [schedual is stacked! which also means i gotta be worrying about it while i run around]

so should i just wait it out, try n stop it healing over in that time?
or should i take it out and let my money slip down the drain?

has anyone had this issue before? what did you do?
what WOULD you do?
your advice would be much appreciated!

     Dont take it out.... You can use something soft yet solid, like a cork, and just screw it onto the ber and keep a watch on it... And just take it easy till you go back for another ball.... Or if you have other jewerly of the same size and just use the ball till you go back

    Hi Nikita I posted your question and the answers are :

     

    Jessica : Keep the piercing in and go to another shop to get the ball replaced. That is crazy that they won't fit u in sooner when this is a semi emergency!

     

    Keara : I personally would wait it out and try to keep it from healing. But that is just me. I have all kinds of piercings but not my shoulders but i have had issues with my piercings before and i waited it out and havnt regretted it. I wish you luck in your choice which ever way you go :)
