What should I do if my newly pierced ear bleeds?

Patients who have just had their ears pierced and are bleeding need to remove the studs and actively disinfect them with iodophor. Try not to touch them with your hands, which can aggravate the bleeding infection around the ear piercing and avoid pus. Patients are advised to apply clindamycin ointment or erythromycin ointment around the ear piercing, which can effectively play a local anti-inflammatory role. If the patient has obvious pain, he can also take oral antibiotics to prevent infection. Clindamycin granules and levofloxacin capsules are commonly used clinically, and a clear allergy history is needed before using the medication to avoid allergic reactions. After active treatment, the bleeding around the patient’s ear pain will be significantly improved. If the bleeding persists, patients are advised to go to the ENT department of the hospital for treatment to avoid aggravating the patient’s condition. Patients avoid contact with water around the ear hole to avoid aggravating the infection.
