I think I might have an earring infection?!
Question: I think I might have an earring infection!?
I got my ears pierced on April 19 of this year!. It has been good up until now!. The left ear is doing well but the right ear is somewhat swollen and has a bump on the back of the lobe!. The bump is where it hurts the most!. The lobe isn't red though!. I took out the earring and cleaned the piercing!. When I try to put another earring in the ear piercing hole it starts bleeding even though it doesn't really hurt and it looks ok!. I put Neosporin on the infected part of the lobe!. Is that ok!? What should I do!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

neosporin is great for the infection if there is one!. it will take a couple of days!. if the infection spreads see a dr!. but more than likely you will be fine!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
Neosporin is good!. My ear did the same thing when I got my ears pierced!. I put neosporin on it and a couple days later it was all better!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
