Suggest Medication For Bleeding Of Ears Due To Piercing
We pierced my daughters ears a few years ago and had to let them close up because her right ear stayed painful and eventually swelled up so much I could barely remove the earring. We just decided to re pierce last year and although it hasn t swelled up, it does have lots of crust when we remove earrings and it bleeds. Suggestions? She only has sterling silver in.

Hello
It looks like that the piercing site has got infected and i would like you to gently remove the crusts and not to insert the ear ring , you can also apply mupirocin ointment 2-3 times a day on the site , which will take care of the infection. take care.
Thanks
