Recent Ear Piercing, Possible Infection?!
Question: Recent Ear Piercing, Possible Infection!?
About a week ago, i got my left lobe pierced!. And today i got a new earring and decided to change it, i know i got told it's a bad idea but the one i had before was really ugly D:
Okay, so i pulled out the 'starter' earring, and i!.!. lost the hole!.!. lol!. It was bleeding a little bit and the back of my ear felt a bit slimey!. But i found the hole after about 2 minutes, but i couldnt find the hole at the back of my lobe so my earring was half in half out, so i pierced it again with the back of the earring!. I'm not sure if this earring is gold, it looks silver, but it might be gold!.
What i would like to know is that could i be/get infected now i've put in a different earring or removed the starter earring etc!.
Thanks!.

It could be infected!. Next time just keep the first one in!. Now just clean it out and try to not touch it!. I pierced my own ear and left it alone, you're mights swell though so if it does!.!.!. don't touch it! It'll be OK in a few days!. Or weeks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
why did you take the earring out after only a week !.!.!.surely an ugly earring would have been better than an infected scabby ear !.!.!.I suggest you leave it out till it has healed and have it redone and the person who did it advised you not to take it out for good reasonWww@Answer-Health@Com
So you took out your starter!.!.!.well whats done is done!. Keep it clean as directed and make sure you turn the earring a few times a day with clean hands!. and keep a close eye on itWww@Answer-Health@Com
