Hello,

My ear lobes were pierced about 3 months ago and I recently had my piercing earrings removed by a professional piercer. He told me I could now change my earrings a couple of times a week, which I have been doing this past week. I was having trouble taking out an earring from my left ear and it became very irritated and red. It is very sore even after removing the earrings, cleaning my ears (with hot salt water gauze) and replacing implant grade titanium studs. Is there anything else I should be doing? It isn't hot and there is no discharge or blood, so I think it is just irritated and not infected.How long do you think I should wait to start changing earrings again?

Thank you so much.
