Hello
It seems from the history that you are having greenish yellow discharge after piercing the ear lobe.
This indicates infection of the ear lobe and it requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and antiinflammatory drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
