How to help my ear that I tried to pierce?

ok, I’ve always wanted my cartlige peirced on my ear, so a few wdays ago I tried peircing it. but the needle wouldnt go all the way through, so I took it out. now, my ear hurts like HELL!!! my whole ear is rilly red, and where I peirced it, theres a big huge bump on the front and the back. the whole where I put the needle in is like a tiny yellow scab. why does my ear hurt sooo bad, and what can I do to make it heal faster??? the pain is unbearable. its so sore if I touch it, and I always end up wacking my ear. it hurts so bad. plus its hard to sleep because im a side sleeper, and it hurts my ear even more. should I like, squeeze the bumpy part on my ear, or like, what?

Answer #1

like the person up there (sorry forgot the name) said, it could be a keloid. In that case you should go to the doctor :)

Answer #2

Haha okay I tried this before myself too ahhh it does hurt like a B*tch!! and yes I did have those bumbs! If you are going to do it by yourself you are going to have suck it up and do it… or else you will just have those bumbs which will go away after time and use plainly of alcohol to take away the infection maybe use ice to get it down .. if I was you since you are have a hard time and cant get it through get it down professionally and to make sure your doing it in the right spot. good luck ☆

Answer #3

well you are a bit…if your going to peirce something you cant just do it slowly and then freak out. it needs to be done fast. thats why you shouldnt have done it yourself. you need someone else to do it for yo…prefarbly a profeshional…don not do anything to the bump…especially pop it…thats stupid…it is infected and the are has swollen and gone red becasue there half a hole in the back of it! right now your ear is doing its best to fight off infections and heal itself, so leave it alone for at least 2 weeks…dont constantly touch it or infection can spread and will stay there longer. time will heal it so just wait and be patient. and dont try to perice the same are again for at least 3 months or untill the are if fully healed and closed up.

ok this might sound like it would hurt but if you put salt water on it then it will heal faster its what I use when I get somthin periced on my body it works great and if its cold it feels great to no but you should poke the whole dont squeeze that will make it hurt more. Jenny

Answer #5

the bump is probably a keloid - they usually appear after piercings when an infection occurs.. you should go see your doctor
