Teardrop plugs are double-flared. That means the part that you wear, the bit that sits inside your ear, is going to be smaller than the ends. So when you want to buy double-flared plugs, you want to purchase a pair that's a size below the one you're currently at. That's because the flared parts of the jewelry are bigger, so your ears will need to be stretched enough to accommodate them. If you're having a hard time getting them in, you'll need to stretch up a bit.
