Hello all
Just wondered if anyone else has had similar experience with ear piercing...
I had mine done as a kid but they closed over after years of not wearing earrings. I took a random notion a few months ago when the shops had reopened and was walking past Claire’s and decided to get them pierced again (I know I know I should’ve gone to a proper piercing studio )
Anyhoo...the left one has healed fine but I’m having an ongoing issue with the right one. Just can’t seem to get it to heal at all. I’m cleaning it at least twice a day with saline solution. But it keeps getting red and sore and a couple of times has definitely been infected. Sometimes it’ll seem to be okay for a week or so, then it starts again. This is the side I sleep on and I think that may be part of the problem.
Should I just give up and take the earring out, let it heal, then get that side done again? Or is there anything else I could try?
Thanks all for reading x
