as a body piercer, I can tell you that it wont heal fast, because you pierced it yourself.Sewing needles are made of bad quality metals that usuially cause more irritation to the piercing.\nOnce the swelling goes down it wont rub on your gums as much.\nBut I dont quite understand what you did. Please answer some of the following questions, and I'll change my answer to help you out more.\n1) What type of jewlery do you have in now? What gauge and size is it? Is it a hoop? labet post? earring stud? What material or typer of metal is it made out of?\n2)did you clean anything before you pierced it?\n3)How have you been cleaning it?

DO NOT USE sea salt/rubbing alcohol, it will cause skin dehydration which will result in bad healing process and will burn out the good and bad bacteria, use 100% lavender oil, what u have is called hypertronic scarring, use the lavender oil twice a day for 7 to 14 days, make green tea and apply it with a cotton ball directly on the piercing gently twice a day and after wards use the lavender oil.DO NOT USE ANY KIND OR OINTMENT AT ALL. And if you have the possibility to change your jewelry to titanium do it ( not gold, not silver, not surgical steel...). Do not take off your piercing, cartilage piercings take over 6 months to heal, if you take it of and put it back in it will rip throught the scar tissue and might even get the "bump" bigger.

you can go to the doctors or just wait to its bursts yourself if you go to the doctors they are only going to cut it open and drain the pus out so its up to you weather or not you can put up with it until it pops itself or be strong and squeeze the shit out of it i know from experience the suckers hurt like hell

Take a large knife a whack it off.  After it heals you won't have anymore problems

There are different options. You could...\n\n-Use a piercing retainer. Youd have to wait a few weeks before changing the jewelry though.\n\n-Minimize the appearance of the monroe by a clear ball. People would have to take a second glance at you to notice it. Could be safe ;).\n\n-Cover it up with a small round band-aid while at work. Most people can tell what you are hiding under there... as it is common for people to cover their piercings with a band-aid while at work.\n\nId say, GET IT!!!!!!! You will not be unsatisfied. If you are a bit embarrassed by a band-aid at work... just deal with it. Trust me, you will be glad you got your monroe pierced and wont mind the lil "sacrifice".

It can take as long as 9 to 12 months. Be sure not to use rubbing alcohol on it, that will only dry out the skin and make the healing take longer. Keep in clean. Your piercer can recommend the proper soap to use.

Clean the blister from debris,Put some antibiotic like neosporin, and keep bandages OFF. You want to air it out, so it can dry and heal.

I think that what you are experiencing is normal since you just had the procedure done a couple days ago.  Keep your hands clean when touching your ear-lopes and use an alcohol swap to clean the area each day, and your ears should feel fine in a few more days.  Don't wear the same earrings all the time without removing them ever so often just to let the hole heal around it, not over it.  Too, wear good quality sterling silver or 12 k gold or better posts to prevent infection.  And, lastly don't share pierced earrings with friends

You can go to a doc.  and have it either frozen off or burned off.  In either case, that will hurt like hell at first, be uncomforatable for awhile, then feel better later.

it will be sore for a few weeks yet or even months, it all depends on your body and how long it takes to heal. the darkened area will prob just be bruising from the piercing. When i had mine done this all happened and had gunk all round it for a while. Get some salt water in an egg cup and soak it for a few mins every day. this will help the healing process.if it starts bleeding or starts worrying you go o the doctors or the place where you got it done just to be sure.x

Clean both the earrings AND the areas where you have the peircings with hydrogen peroxide twice a day and be patient.  I did that several years ago and I remember it hurting for quite a while.  I'd even say a month or two.  Just because it hurts doesn't mean it's infected, but the redder it is the more likely it is infected.  Cartilage peircings tend to get infected pretty easily, so just keep it clean!!

Lance it. \nGet a sharp needle, cover it in alcohol then poke it right on top just a little. Then the fluid will escape, with some encouragement, which reduces the swelling. It may weep for about ten minutes. When it drains, get some alcohol on it and maybe some ice. Once it stops seeping, you can add some Neosporin on it.\nIt works a lot faster than waiting for it to go away oin its own.  But don't poke too hard!

A pierce tragus can take anywhere from a month to a year to heal completely.  The reaction of the peroxide doesn't tell you anything about the cause of the infection- it's reacting with the blood cells and the bacteria in the area, as well as any virus.  If you think there is an abscess growing inside the ear, you need to visit a doctor immediately.  The bacteria causing it can rapidly spread to the cartilage of the rest of the ear, not to mention the face.  A dermatologist may be able to save the piercing for you, then again he may not.   But the infection needs to be gotten under control at any rate, as you stand to lose more than just the piercing if it gets away from you.\n  To encourage the infection to drain and heal, try applying hot moist washcloths directly to the area.  Make sure your hands are very clean, as well as the cloth you use.  Afterwards, clean the post with the peroxide, but otherwise don't  meddle with anything.  If the spot doesn't drain and begin healing on it's own in the next few days, I would really encourage you to remove the post and go see the doctor to get antibiotics.  I'm sure you did pay quite a bit for the piercing, but that will be nothing compared to what reconstruction will cost to repair the ear if you don't take care of it.  For pain, the only choices are Tylenol, aspirin, and Motrin.  If it does decide to drain, the pain will go away pretty much at the same time.

First, how do you know it's infected? Was it pierced by a professional?\n\nDO NOT TAKE IT OUT. Biggest mistake anyone with an infected piercing could make. The infection needs to be treated before it is removed. Use a clear/colorless anti-bacterial hand soap and clean it twice daily. Salt water helps too. If it doesn't clear up you may need to see a doctor.\n\nMy best advice is don't touch it -- this is how most piercing infections occur. Unless you are cleaning it, leave it alone until it heals.

Not to worry.   First, be sure to clean the "hole".  Use either alcohol or Hydrogen Peroxide.  Then, the "stud" should slide right back in.  IF IT DOESN"T, it is because you are sliding it in the wrong angle. If it started bleeding, it is because you went in the wrong direction.  Just redirect the angle of the stud.  The hole will not close that quickly.  GOOD LUCK AND DON'T WORRY.

sterilize a needle with rubbing alcohol pop it if you can stand it pull back just a little of the skin and put some neosporin anti scar on it.. the anti scar works faster at repairing skin tissue and doesn't burn like liquid bandage

The piercer does it so quick that you dont have time to even think about it... It will get a little sore afterwards, especially the day after, but actually getting it done, doesnt.
