Ear stretching/injury help?

okay so i stretched my right ear to a 6g a few weeks ago with stainless steal tapers that screw off at the end and turn into plugs. (kinda like this but stainless steel and a 6g http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/Accessories/BodyJewelry/Tapers/Morbid-Metals-Pink-Taper-ScrewOn-Set-184046.jsp) my left ear was perfectly fine. but my right ear was pretty swollen and tender after a few days and i woke up one morning and it was really swollen so i took it out and puss and a little bit of blood came out. i whipped it up and cleaned it will salt water and the past few days i have been putting neosporin and emu butter on it and did the occasionally salt water dip. unfortunately my ear started to close up so i put a 16g earring in to hold the hole. now 90% of the swelling went down and the hole is hard and feels like theres a ball in my ear. how much longer will it take for it to fully heal and for me to start stretching again?
