I have been pierced for around 3 months beginning to have a few problems with it which are starting to worry me. Firstly bumps have appeared on each hole which my piercer said were scars that should heal within 4 weeks is this true? my bottom hole has got some loose skin beside it which bleeds most times that I clean it,why is that there,is it normal? Over all,the piercing does not look very nice to look at with all this going on. Help?
The bumps are most likely keliods, most of the time they do not go away. The skin around the ball in normal I still get it every now and again an I have had mine for two years. I highly suggest jojoba oil, it's on the pricey side but I swear by it for all my metal gear.
Same probelms! q: The bumps are hypo-something scarring. Cant exactly remember the name. The bleeding and extra skin is normal but not healthy. Chica, sounds like you have infection, but not bad. Do three salt water soaks a day, and clean in with antibacterail soap in the shower, and everything should be back to normal within the week! q: salt water soaks: mix a cup of hot water and 1/4 teaspoon of pure sea salt take cotton swabs and drench the solution on your ear for ten min. five per hole.
