Since you posted this question like 5 times in 3 minutes, then YES, your ears are infected, you will get lockjaw and your ears will fall off too!

Yes, it is normal. You just poked a hole in a place where there isn't naturally a hole to begin with. As the ear starts to heal it will hurt less when you rotate the earrings. Make sure you keep them and your hands clean, and use either hydrogen peroxide or the santizing solution you got when they pierced your ears. You can normally expect the soreness to go away after around a week, but it will take a good 4-6 weeks to heal completely and you should not change earrings until then.

I think that your ears are probably just adjusting to the new holes. But keep close eye on any signs of redness, swelling or goo, as you mentioned. If occurs, call your doctor. But it usually takes time for the so called "open wound" to heal. Good luck!

Normal. It will take a while for your ears to get used to the piercings.

after any injury u get inflammation which maximum at 48 hrs.they precede the healing process.so unless u have very sever pain,red tender,and pus, i don't think anything wrong.so don't meddle around that may introduce infection.

good luck

yup its going to keep hurting -- when you twist it you are actually breaking up scabbing tissue -- thats why you twist -- you don't want icky scab you want a nice round hole. have fun.
