Hi,
It seems that you got some infection on piercing site.
While turning ring clean front and back of ring with antiseptic lotion.
Apply antibiotic cream locally.
If there is no healing due to irritation of ring, remove the rings for few days and re apply after healing.
If require go for one oral antibiotic medicine for 3 days.
Ok and take care.
