Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I sized up my ear about a week ago. I cleaned it every day, normal stretching. Didn't hurt when I stretched it or even after. Painless and easy. But a few days after I started noticing a little redness and soreness. I just figured I slept on it and it got a little irritated. This morning I went to clean it more properly and took out the plug. I noticed some crust on the inside (normal ear cheese) but when I massaged it, very yellow discharge came out, I squeezed it till no more discharge came out but a little blood started coming out too. I cleaned my love with soap then a saline solution. My ear started swelling and I'm seeing more of this very yellow discharge and blood. I've had infected piercings before but it's never been this yellow. Should I see a doctor or continue to clean it myself everyday?
