Swelling In Ear Lobe And Bleeding After Ear Piercing. What Should I Do?
Hi, my ear lobe is really swollen now (got a piercing about 2 months ago). Have removed the earrings an hour ago, but blood is still coming out. Should i keep pressing for all blood to come out or leave it? Also, as my piercing is new, I am worried that the hole might seal back if I were to leave out the earring for long. But it doesn't sound wise to put it back in now. What should i do?

Hi,
I have gone through your query.
It suggests that your ear lobe may be infected.
I personally advised to consult the ENT specialist for
1. Better diagnosis and management.
2. To take proper antibiotic.
3. To take anti inflammatory drug.
If you have any doubt, I will be available for your query.
