It's generally recommended to wait at least 6-8 weeks before changing a cartilage piercing to allow sufficient healing time. Even if the area looks and feels fine after 5 days, there could still be internal healing that isn't visible. Changing the jewelry too soon may increase the risk of irritation or infection. If you're unsure, it's best to consult with a professional piercer.
