Can a torn earlobe heal on its own or do I need surgery What's the best treatment and how long before I can wear earrings again

A torn earlobe will likely require surgical repair rather than healing on its own, especially if it's significantly stretched or torn. The best treatment involves surgical closure of the tear, and you'll need to wait several weeks to re-pierce the ear.
