Ear infection? Piercings?!


Question: I got my ears pierced 5 years ago when I was 5. Everytime I take the earrings out, my holes are crusted and hurt. Then right hole always has a sticky discharge, or sticky blood. My mom makes me put neosporin on them, and it wont help. I havent been wearing earrings for a while.

your are prbly putting the backing of the earring on too tight. When you put it on too tight, it causes the piercing to get infected. Take the earrings out, clean them with alcohol and put the neosporin on it. you can put the earring back in but make sure you dont put the backing on too close to your ear. It will heal in a few days. This happens to me periodically. One of piercing is doing it right now actually.

you may have a nickle (metal) allergy and can not wear jewelry. you may need an antibiotic now.

You don't pierce your own arm honeyy
