About a month ago, I got my tragus pierced, and a keloid [I think] formed now. I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Has this happened to anyone else, and if so, how did you take care of it?
I know that I don't have to take out my piercing, I just have to clean it and such, but I'm not sure if there are any other remedies. You clean it with a sea salt solution right? For 15 minutes, 2-3 times a week. Someone told me though that you can crush up tylenol and add a little bit of water to make it into a paste and that will get rid of it too, but I'm hesitant to try it because I don't want to make it worse. Has anyone tried the tylenol+water remedy? |

keliods can actually get really big... and awful
is it just a little bubble/bump? liek one most people get when they get their nose pierced? you should use saliene contact solution and just squirt it on there a few times a day. ive used bc powder mixed into a paste when my lip did that about 3 or 4 weeks after i got it done. youre suposed ot just let it sit there for bout 15 minutes but it doesnt really work or yanno what would work better is squirting that saliene on a cotton swab and letting it rest on your tragus for abotu 15 minutes.. a few times a day, rather than squirting it. ive got a lot of weird ear piercings so im kinda used ot this haha |
