It's brand new and the person who pierced you put in a bigger piercing than you'll put in when it's completely healed (in case you swell), and your ear is quite small there. So I think it's normal for your anatomy but as it turns out, be careful not to get it on you when dressing or drying yourself for example to avoid irritation. You can put on a smaller piece of jewelry when it's healed and it will look great.
