Is this a sign of ear infection?!


Question: Is this a sign of ear infection!?
i been cleaning my ear and earring every week and i notice every time i take my earring off there;s like white stuff on the earring not sure if its ear infection or not!. My friends tells me when you have a ear infection it would hurt but it doesn't but sometimes it would tingle when i clean my ear, so does this mean i got ear infection!? if so should i take it off!?!?

Answers:
To clean your ear and earring you don't need to take the whole earring out!. You increase the risk of infection every time you take it out so just clean around the earring front and back!.
Is the white stuff like puss (quite runny, like spot puss)!? if so it could be infected especially if there is any redness and swelling around the hole!. If the white is thicker its just dirt/grime or perhaps soap or something similar which has built up around that area!.
Whichever it is don't take your earring out just keep it in whenever possible!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

NO!. your ear is healing!. it will be fine!. Remember to clean your ear once or twice a day and it will get better!. if your problem persists seek medical attention!. ^____^Www@Answer-Health@Com
