I pierced my ears a couple days ago and my ear is bleeding!?
Question:
Answers:
that's just natural
That happens sometimes there is nothing to worry about!
lol, that happens. my ear bleeded alot too. Actually it still does
I hope you used sterile technique. If not you could have an infection.
Look for swelling, tenderness, heat to touch and redness.
Keep it clean, and be observant. If after three days or so you still are having problems, see a health care provider.
You also might have an allergy to the metal in the stud you are using.
You can use ice packs (always put fabric between your ear and the ice) and just enough pressure to stop the bleeding, hold for five minutes, just like a nosebleed.
Hope this helps.

its normal the first time buh if it hurts n keeps goin on then put rubbin alchol on it or any other ear medicine u can get
Where did you pierce your ear?
Lobe shouldn't bleed that much, Cartilage bleeds ALOT. [Trust me, I have 3 cartilage piercings]
And if you did it yourself, watch out for infection!
Lobe has less chance of infection, cartilage almost always gets infected. And BTW, if you pierced you cartilage yourself,with a big needle, or a thick one, you may have shattered it.
If you did it yourself you might have an infection and need to go to the doctor. If a professional did it you might need some anti-septic wash to put on it. If it gets worse, go to the doctor.
Don't worry hold two cotton balls (one on the front and one on the back) for a few minutes. It natural don't freak. But if it hurts after a while take out the earring.
