Question: Please help - v!. infected ear - possibly flesh eating bacteria!?
my ear has suddenly, over the last 4 day gone from a little sore where a piercing was not entirely healed to sore, throbbing mess of soggy, yellow scabs, sopping wet because it is weeping so much, eneven because strips of flesh have gone and is rapidly spreading to hole ear and side of face!. I'm going to doctors either tomorrow or the day after but i'm scared and disgusted!. whats going on!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

Damn girl, go to the doctor now!. Not tomorrow!. Infections spread sooo fast on your face!. So much damage has already been done, get on some antibiotics ASAP!. And keep washing your hands before touching your face and especially after you touch it!. Good Luck from a ER nurse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

and
2 your allergic to the metal or something that has been put on to the ring!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I doubt very much whether it is Streptococcal Necrotising Faseitus, or you would be in such agony you would not be on this site!.
If it is as bad as you describe, go to A&E, don't sit here typing, man!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Oh god, I think you should go to urgent care now, not your regular doctor tomorrow! That sounds absolutely gross, and could worsen significantly in 24hrs!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Please don't wait until tomorrow - go straight to the hospital!. It might just be infected and they can stop it spreading!. Just go!Www@Answer-Health@Com
