Will Glucosamine Chondroitin + MSM help or hinder an ear cartilage piercing?

Can you answer gremlin_mischief’s question about Arthritis?:

I got an Industrial piercing in my ear. I was told it can take 6 months to a year for the holes in the cartilage to heal around the piercing. A few months back I started taking Glucosamine, Chondroitin + MSM supplements to help with cartilage I tore in my hip. I was wondering if such supplements would also influence ear cartilage, and if so would it be in a positive or negative way? Thanks!
