Question:
How do I take care of a swollen pierced earlobe w/o the hole closing?
I don't have alcohol pads. I put ice on it already. I put ointment on the hole. Everytime it closes up, i wash the hole out gently to keep it open. I can't put another earing in there w/o it hurting, but i don't want the hole to close. I put a fake earing in my ear and that's how it got swollen. Please help if u can. thanks.
Answers:
keep doing what you are doing.. one thing to try is using another earing (stud preferred) and put the end in neosporin.. (also try using it on the lobe itself as well). that's what I always did.. and have not had one close on me yet. (even in the cartiledge)
It will still hurt for awhile though..
