last night. It doesn't hurt at all. Its not red. I've got ear piercing cleaner. I used a clean sewing needle (it didnt hurt at all, no ice needed!) and I put in an earring I'm not allergic to. I should be fine right? Are there any risks to what I did? Also it didnt bleed at all. Although none of my ear piercings have.

I've always pierced my own ears using either a needle or a starter earring, and I've never had a problem. As long as you keep it clean and remember to turn the earrings(so the holes don't close around the posts), you should be fine! Also, don't wear any heavy earrings for at least 6 weeks!

When I was young my mother had my ears pierced 5 or 6 times professionally. Every time, we had to take them back out because the were infected.
I finally did it again myself when I was 12 or 13 and I still have them!
Ear care cleaner is good, keep using it and keep your stud in if thats what you have for a while. Take it out and clean regularly though.
I think you will be fine - hope you sterilized the needle (alcohol).

Strong work, tough girl. Now just keep the infection out, watch it for redness or oozing of liquid. If that happens, go to a doctor you may need antibiotics. Make sure to wash your hands with antibacterial soap before touching your ear or earring. Try to keep your hair and hair products away from it. In six weeks you will have another permanent hole in your head. I don't recommend self piercing due to infection risks and nerve damage possibilities.

you might of repierced a hole that was closed up. there wouldnt be much to any bleeding. as long as you dont see any redness nor puss comming from it and there is no pain and everything you used was sterile, just take care of it like you normally would with any piercing. you should be fine. first sign of any infection from redness and swelling take the earring out and sometimes common home product like peroxide and alcohol with triple antibiotic can help or you might want to see the dr. and get an antibiotic for the infection.

As long as you pay careful attention to the area, and watch for signs of infection, you shouldn't have a problem. Check for redness, swelling, discharge of any type, and feeling warmth in the area of the piercing. If you note any of those things, head down to your local emergency department and have it looked at. We see plenty of infected piercings, but they are mostly ones that are done on the lips, tongue, naval, and eyebrows.

It sounds incredibly good, different than now and returned once you're taking away the secure practices pin it pulls a bite of dermis over the returned of the hollow and you are able to kinda snap it by using returned the two with the earring or with the secure practices pin. additionally make certain you twist the earring common so it is much less annoying to take it out once you prefer to.

As long as you keep it clean it should be alright. But i wouldn't advise piercing your ears youself in future. is really cheap to get it dont professionally and much safer.

Keep it clean, polysporin or rubbing alcohol, at least twice daily for a couple weeks.
