Whole Back Of The Earring Was Stuck In My Elbow

is there any important muscles in your elbow ? can you injure them by getting an earring stuck in your skin ? here s the story : i was doing my eye make-up 2 days ago , and i went to put my elbow on my dresser for support , and i didn t see an earring sitting there , and the whole back of the earring was stuck in my elbow , i m still having pains , and i m not sure if i should get a doctor to look at it . plus my mom would think it was silly to take me to a doctor anyway .

Hi,Babie,
Thanks for query,
It seems that you got soft tissue injury,
If pain and swelling is there then there is possibility of having infection.
Take tetanus toxoid inj.
If there is infection go for antibiotic medicine.
Apply antibiotic cream.
Ok and bye.
