No because sterling silver is a pure metal. (throughout the whole earing) Sterling silver and real gold or solid gold - not "gold plated" are the only things my daughter and I can wear.

That's a normal reaction for newly pierced ears - every time I've had my ears pierced they'll be sore, red and a little weepy/crusty to start with. The swelling and bleeding isn't normal though - especially if they'd been pierced for a while. If you really want your ears pierced, perhaps it would help to go to a professional (ask around to find the best place you can) and speak to them about it. It could be that your ears were infected before, due to a bad piercing, the wrong metal or not looking after it properly afterwards. It might not be a good idea to get the same place pierced again - a different spot on your ears might be better. Speaking to a professional should give you the answers you need. Some people are allergic to some metals - sterling silver or gold are usually ok (I can't wear gold, but that doesn't mean you can't). Titanium and surgical steel are also good options for piercings. I wouldn't wear anything other than silver, titanium or surgical steel. Hope this helps!

I have sensitive ears and sterling silver and gold plated are ok for me. Seems like only the surgical steel earings bother me.

No, sterling silver is alot like gold.. It doesn't irritate sensitive ears.

It's most likely what metal ws used to weld the post to the back of your earrings. Sterling NORMALLY does not cause a reaction, it's nickel that ears are sensitive to. Knowing that you can be a more savvy shopper for earrings now!

I have trouble wearing anything under 14 kt gold. Not just saying that to get expensive gifts. I breakout with anything less.
