Ear piercing discharge

Whether male or female, in pursuit of fashion, they will choose to pierce their ears to make themselves more fashionable. The main purpose of piercing your ears is to be able to wear earrings, but you must take good care of them after piercing them to avoid any signs of pus. Some people do not perform regular ear piercing care after getting their ears pierced and find that there is foul-smelling secretion inside the ear holes. So what is the specific mechanism of the formation of foul-smelling secretions inside the ear holes?

1. How to take care of ear piercings

The sweat and oil we shed every day will condense in the ear holes, which may become smelly over time! In severe cases, it may even cause inflammation! Therefore, no matter how long you have had your ears pierced, you must clean and care for them regularly.

① Clean your ear holes regularly: There are ear wires on the market that are specially designed for cleaning ear holes. Soak the ear wire in cleaning solution and then pass it through the ear hole to bring out the secretions. After clearing the secretions from the ear hole, wipe the ear with alcohol. It is said that the process is very pleasant.

② Clean earrings frequently: In addition to ear piercings, earrings you wear on a daily basis should also be disinfected with alcohol regularly, because the secretions from the ear piercings will also adhere to the earrings, which will oxidize and turn black over time, which is not only unhygienic but also affects the appearance.

③ Avoid touching with your hands: In addition, do not touch your ears with your hands when you have nothing to do. There are many bacteria on your hands, which are not good for ear holes and ear studs.

2. How to prevent ear holes from getting blocked

If you have had your ears pierced for several years and you don't wear earrings for a long time, they may be blocked. So it is best not to stop wearing earrings, otherwise it will be troublesome if the ear holes close.

If you find wearing earrings troublesome, you can choose anti-blocking ear bars. They can be made of silver, gold, or resin. To prevent the ear bars from falling off accidentally, the needle bar diameter should be 0.7mm or above. The ear sticks are simple and light, but remember to clean and replace them frequently.

3. What to do if the ear hole is blocked

What should you do if your ear hole is closed like the fan at the beginning of the article? Never pull the earring hard, as it may cause bleeding or inflammation.

If the blockage is not serious, you can ask someone to help you use a pure silver ear needle (must be straight) to gently rotate it into the ear hole to dredge it. If it still doesn't work, it's best to go to a professional ear piercing agency. They have more professional tools and techniques. Otherwise, if you force it through, it will cause inflammation, which is not worth it!

The earrings are beautiful

But you can't carry it randomly

Newly pierced or newly cleared ear piercings need to be well maintained within one year. Be careful when choosing earrings to wear. Don't just look at the appearance. Earrings that are too exaggerated, too heavy, or of inappropriate shape or material will affect the repair of the ear piercing and may even cause inflammation.

1. Do not wear earrings with chains

Chain-type ear wires enter the ear hole, which causes great friction and can easily damage the cells in the newly healed ear hole. Moreover, many ear wires are made of alloys with unknown composition, which can also easily cause allergies.

2. Ear studs are better than earrings.

When the ear hole is just formed, it is still very fragile. Hook-type earrings and ring-type earrings can easily cause the ear hole to grow crooked or even enlarge under the action of gravity. Later, other types of earrings may not be able to pass through, and in severe cases, bleeding may occur. Straight earrings can balance the ear holes and help shape them.

Wearing earrings on newly pierced or unblocked ears can easily cause redness and swelling.

3. Don’t wear alloy earrings

The alloy has a low content of precious metals and contains other metals, which may cause allergies and inflammation. Generally speaking, silver earrings are good for ear holes. Silver can reduce inflammation and kill bacteria, and is a very health-care metal, so it is very suitable for newly pierced ears.

For the sake of ear health, don't buy these roadside stalls that cost dozens of dollars!

However, some people are allergic to metal. In this case, they can choose to wear medical ear studs or anti-allergic and anti-clogging resin ear bars. Wait until the ear holes are completely healed before trying ear studs made of other materials.
