Hi I dont know if this is the right place to ask this, but here goes. I got my ears pierced about a month ago and it got infected recently. The skin around the ear hole. It was ok at first, but over time it started to hurt. i got ears done at claires and i've been using their antiseptic. I found out yesterday that my ear was starting to get infected because my left lob was swollen compared to the right one only a bit. So i took the earrings out and cleaned my ears with hydrogen peroxide and put neosporin around the hole and on the metal thing for the earring. My friend told me to do this cause him and his girlfriends did that when they had infections and it went away. What do I do now to keep it from getting infected and to make the infection go away? ><
