My daughters earing stud got stuck inside the front of her ear under the skin. We pushed it through and took it out. We then cleaned it really well and put a clean, sanitized earing back in. Is there anything else we should do? Should we take the earing out completely?
Hello, I understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query. In my opinion you should take out the ear ring for few days until the infections got cleared up. Take good care of local hygiene, do three times cleaning with sterilized normal saline. Do twice daily Chat Doctor.  Do not cover it with bandages. Make the ventilation effective. It will fasten the healing. I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/
