With clean hands, apply some Vaseline to the posts of the earrings.
This will allow the heavy earrings to slide right in place. You only need the tiniest amount for this.
2. Apply Vaseline to your piercing holes
Next, apply a similar amount of Vaseline to your piercing holes from the front and back.

Vaseline may help "glide" the earrings through the piercing, but it does absolutely nothing to reduce the weight of the earring or the effect of that weight in the long run---namely, damage to the earlobe. Furthermore, if your earlobes are getting puffy and sore from wearing a particular earring, your lobes are trying to tell you something: stop wearing that particular earring! No matter how cute or fashionable you think the style is, if you insist on abusing your earlobe, the result is that you will not be able to wear ANY earrings in the future (unless you submit to plastic surgery . . . and why would you want to go to that extreme if you don't have to?)
Gravity is gravity and will pull the heavier objects down.
