K... the hole has healed, its just I keep getting a little red bump near it and I clean it with anti-septic soap, and as soon as I heal it it comes back again in a few days.
I really love my eyebrow ring and don't want to take it out.
Is there anything you have tried that works?
I've tried rubbing alcohol,
salt & hot water,
bactine,
anti-bacterial soap

I read using Tea Tree Oil would help... is that true?

Do not use rubbing alcohol, do not use regular salt, do not use bactine, do not use antibacterial soap. These are all bad.

I had the exact same problem with my eyebrow piercing. I have a couple of questions for you first.
1. Where did you go to get your piercing?
2. What gauge is it?
3. What material is it?
A lot of people make the mistake of going to a piercer that isn't clean or who doesn't know what they are doing. He/she may have pierced you too deep and it is irritating your browridge. Also, anything larger than an 16 gauge is too big for your eyebrow. If you are allergic to the material, that could also cause problems.
If you trust the person who did it, go back and get a peice of smaller gauged jewelry and ask for stainless steel or titanium. Those are both surgical grade and shouldn't irritate. You can also go to either of the two websites below for more advice.
Making sure you are getting all of your vitamins will help your body heal as well.
Also, never use alcohol or anti-bacterial soap on any open wound!

It in basic terms hurts while they warfare to get it with the aid of the different area, the preliminary pierce is greater of a marvel than something yet on the way with the aid of there's a type of father that for the period of basic terms hurts for somewhat. The healing technique is ongoing and you consistently might desire to bathe/bathe the wound. I used a Savlon spray to bathe mine yet you need to use salt water in case you like. good success, it does look good after so its definately nicely worth it.

Try a new ring you might be allergic to the metal
