STOP applying the rubbing alcohol. Leave it and apply vitamin E gel or break a capsule of vitamin E and use that. In the mean time.Allow it to heal.Do not pick at it and you may have to get your ear pierced again after it heals.

Stop with the alcohol. First wash your hands. Get some neosporin and put that on overnght, or in the morning. Then spin the earring while it is still in your ear. Keep doing this until it starts to feel/look better. Put on the neosporin 2-3 times a day on the front and back. Just a little each time.

Stop using rubbing alchahol and put neosporin ointment on the area 3 times a day.

Did you get a solution for cleaing when you got it peirced. You are suppose to use that at first for like 2 months. Most likely you some how got an infection or are having a reaction to the type of metal. was the place where you got it clean?

Apply some antibiotic ointment to it. It's not harsh and will promote healing. It will also help soften the skin, whereas the alcohol will dry it out and make it more crusty.
Don't take the earring out unless you want it to close up.

Stop rubbing alcohol on it and buy yourself some Polysporin to heal it & apply that 3 times a day instead.

stop using it right away and apply some ointment like hydrocortisone or neosporin. You may want to ask your local pharmacist what could they recomend.

It is not the alcohol it sounds like a allergic reaction to the ear ring you are wearing. you need to go to the doctor if you lobe is black and you need to go ASAP.

Okay, what strength are you using? It better not be 91%, because there's your problem right there. Why aren't you using the stuff they gave you when you got them pierced?

Once daily, 3 time is far too much.
