How to reduce swelling of pierced earlobes

Girls all love beauty. Even if they know that ear piercing may cause inflammation, it cannot stop their enthusiasm for ear piercing. Especially in summer, various bacteria breed vigorously and wounds are more likely to get infected. Although the ear holes are small, it is very painful if they get inflamed. Many girls have swollen earlobes after getting their ears pierced, and they become red and painful. So how to reduce the swelling of the earlobes?

1. Choose a regular hospital or beauty salon to get your ears pierced. If you go to some street shops, the unhygienic environment may cause infection, which will bring you unnecessary troubles.

2. Prepare a pair of pure silver or pure gold earrings, or hypoallergenic earrings. However, in my opinion, hypoallergenic earrings are actually plastic earrings, and the effect is definitely not as good as pure gold or pure silver. It is not suitable to wear heavy earrings after having your ears pierced. In addition, pure silver or pure gold earrings have a certain bactericidal effect, which is conducive to the healing of ear holes.

3. Prepare a bottle of 75% alcohol and some medical cotton swabs. After piercing your ears, disinfect the prepared earrings with a cotton swab dipped in a small amount of alcohol, dry them, and then wear them. It is actually not painful to wear earrings at this time because your ears are still numb after the piercing.

4. Wash your hands before going to bed every night, take off the earrings and disinfect them with a cotton swab dipped in a small amount of alcohol before wearing them again. Because the ears have just been pierced, the tissue is damaged and some pus will be produced, which needs to be cleaned in time, otherwise it will affect the healing speed. In addition, it will be painful to do this in the first few days, but you have to persist and give it your all for beauty.

5. If your ears are still swollen, you can go to the pharmacy and buy a bottle of iodine. Every night when you take off the earrings, use a cotton swab dipped in a little iodine to disinfect the area around the ear holes. But be aware that iodine can turn your skin yellow, so be careful when using it.

6. If the swelling is tolerable to you, you should insist on wearing earrings. Otherwise, the ear holes will become permanent and all the pain you have endured in the past few days will be in vain.

7. If the swelling is really severe, go to the hospital!
