i've got 14 peircings and most of them are in my ears so i've seen this infection before. it is an infection but its ok to leave the earring in. thats the only way you're going to be able to get past it. it will take longer to heal than if you took the earing out but don't worry about it. it will heal. probably try NOT to sleep on it just because that might irritate it further and will make it hurt more. soak it with a mixture of sea salt and water (1/4 tsp to 1 cup warm distilled water) twice a day and gently try to squeeze any puss out. that should do ya!

If its just a little bump, dont even worry. The bump is probably just the tissue in your ear. When you peirce your wears, the tissue where the hole is makes a little bump. Unless your peircing hole looks swollen, red or oozey, its most likely not infected. If its just a bump, you can put your earring back in

it might be infected but im not sure, when i got my ears pierced the 1st time they bleed and hurt soo bad so i had to let it close up and when it closed up it left a bump on top of where the hole used to be, so i asked my doctor and he said that i might be allergic to gold or silver whichever one i used. so i got them pierced again and i have to wear nickel free and allerginic earrings but the extra price is worth it.. so try a pair of them....

so peircing the incorrect ear makes (or inictaes) you're gay? Dude awaken. earlier you attempt to act mature sufficient to make that style of desicion you want extra existence skills. in simple terms to make sparkling, I actual have 3 holes in each and each and by no skill doubted what i replaced into doing or my sexuality.

if it is red or sore around the bump itis probably infected and should be looked at right away. or if there is any draining coming from it. hope your ok
