Answers:
it's perfectly normal it means that your ear is infected
you need to clean around the pierced area with hydrogen peroxide or rubbing alchohol (more effective) and clean the entire piercing stud with one of these as well continue to drain the liquid out if you experience too much pain go back to the piercing place and they will give you some type of fix
they may also reccommend letting it close up and re-piercing it after it has healed
good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

the swelling that you feel in the back is pretty much like a little pimple!. I have them and they wont hurt you!. Let it disolve on its own!. Just keep cleaning it with alcohol and you may want to go to a different person and have them check that you havent pierced through a blood vessel!. Even if you have it will heal on its own!. Your ear lobes are actually one of the slowest parts of your body to heal because it is cartliage!. Dont worry, it will heal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
