Had Ears Pierced. Lobes Tender. Why Did Pus Ooze?

I ve had my ears pierced for over two months now, almost three. I ve had no major problems up until yesterday, when my lobes were tender so I took out my earrings (I wear them every day) for awhile and pus started oozing out. When I tried to put earrings in this morning, it would only go in halfway or so, and now I have a sort of pus ball in my ear lobes. What should I do?

Allergist and Immunologist 's  Response
sometimes the piercing with unsterile instruments causes us in rainy season
or there can be reaction to material of earrings
just dont put anything
take metrogyl 200 mgm bd for 7 days
wash with betadine ointment
and apply clindac a gel plus mometasone morning evening
after 10 days after pus is stopped try with putting good and pure earrings
