How do you tell if your piercing is infected?
I got my cartilage pierced 2 weeks ago, and today it's gotten really red and very swollen. Maybe it's from irritation, like hitting it, but I'm not sure. How do you tell if it's infected? |

No puss or anything...but I can't take it out because it's only been 2 weeks, they told me not to take it out for 6. I think it may be just from irritation...I mean, I know it's supposed to hurt a while after...but yeah. The swelling did go down a little...but if it does get infected I should just get meds? I really dont wanna take it out and then have to get ir re-pierced and go through this pain in the ass, can't sleep on i crap. I went to get my hair cut today, and lemme tell ya, when the brush gets caught on it - ow.
...and I never thought of antibacterial soap...I just used alcohol. |
