What to do if your newly pierced ear swells

If a patient has a swollen ear piercing, it means that there is a bacterial infection around the ear piercing, so it is recommended to actively fight inflammation and reduce swelling. You can buy iodophor or alcohol to scrub repeatedly, or you can rinse with hydrogen peroxide, which can have an anti-inflammatory and antiseptic effect. After rinsing, you can apply Bactroban cream or Denide cream on the surface, which can continuously play an anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and swelling effect, and has a very good therapeutic effect on the swelling and pain of the patient’s ear hole. In order to prevent the spread of inflammation, you can take oral levofloxacin capsules for anti-inflammatory treatment. After active treatment, the symptoms should improve, and if necessary, you need to go to the hospital for further consultation, and you must not rub the ear piercing repeatedly with your hands after piercing.
