[|Human|] I got my ears pierced yesterday and they are now swollen, hot to the touch, and extremely itchy. They are my second piercings on each ear but are not in the cartilage. The earrings are now tight on my earlobes and the backs are not adjustable. This never happened with my first piercing and I doubt that I have an infection because I have cleaned them properly and I got them pierced at my doctor s office to be extra careful. However, my ears have always been very sensitive. What should I do?
[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, As your ears pierced yesterday, and they are swollen, hot to the touch, and extremely itchy may be due to injury to the ear cartilage. The tetanus spore can sustain for longer period of time in the anaerobic environment and the rusted objects are known to harbor these spores. I would suggest you to recommend you to follow these measures1. Take TT injection2. Apply Metro ointment over the wound3. Oral antibiotics like Tab Augmenting, twice daily for 5 days. Thank you.
