My ears haven't healed after a year of piercing.

In fact, the issue of ear piercing is not just about looking good. Many people suffer from ear piercing inflammation all year round. The main reasons include whether they are used correctly or not, and choosing relatively cheap decorations, which can easily cause ear piercing inflammation. It may even include ear inflammation caused by allergies. You need to choose the season to pierce your ears, and you need to choose the time to replace the earrings. There are many things to pay attention to when caring for ear piercings.

1. The best time to get your ears pierced:

The best time to get your ears pierced is at the end of March and the end of September because the weather is just right, neither too cold nor too hot. At other times, it is either too cold or too hot, which is not conducive to ear repair.

2. Time required to replace earrings:

Never listen to people who have pierced their ears and tell them that you can replace them after three days. It will not make it easy for the ears to heal properly and it can easily cause inflammation.

Personal experience: You must take them off when you rotate the earrings and there is no unpleasant feeling, which should be about a month. Before the wound heals, it is generally difficult to poke the earring into the hole and it is more likely to poke the wound, resulting in new injuries before the old ones have healed. In fact, it takes about a year for the ear piercing to heal completely. During this period, there will be water leakage and itching. At this time, remember to use a cotton swab dipped in disinfectant to clean it.

People with sensitive skin must be careful when getting their ears pierced, because according to scientific principles, the skin on the ears is the best indicator of a person's true skin type. If the inflammation is severe, you must go to the hospital in time to resolve it.

In addition, some advice for those girls with skin allergies: a. Make sure to find a clean place to get your earrings done; b. Make sure your earrings are anti-allergenic or made of platinum.

3.Medicines needed to maintain ear piercings:

Some girls think that you must never use chloramphenicol eye ointment and keep the ear holes clean. However, if you don't use it, the pus from the ear holes will stick to the ear holes and the earrings. Once the earrings are turned, the healed wounds will break again. This is simply a vicious cycle. In fact, you only need to use an ear needle (that is, an earring), dip it in a little chloramphenicol, and then wear it. Personally, I think erythromycin is more effective than chloramphenicol, but of course it is slightly more expensive.

How to use: Use erythromycin ointment with medical alcohol, clean it once every five days, use silver earrings, or plastic ones, take them out on time, first clean the ear holes, earrings, and earplugs with alcohol, put the needle of the earring into the ointment, prick it and then insert it, and apply ointment around the ear holes.

During that period, eat less irritating foods, keep your ears clean, avoid strong collisions to avoid damaging the ear holes, use silver earrings instead of curved hooks, and if you persist for a month, the ear holes will not die or become inflamed.

In addition, if you don’t have erythromycin ointment, Mentholatum’s mint ointment is also a very good choice.
