Answer 1

leave the earring out for a while as you have had the piercing done for 2years it will not close up.

use natual sea salt to bath it twice a day. if it seems the infection is getting worse consult your GP.

have you recently used new earrings it could be a reacton to the metal?

Answer 2

hot salty water and a cotten but this should work

Answer 3

I have two holes in each lobe, and sometimes my ears will kind of feel that way. I just use cotton balls to wash the holes with soap and water, and sometimes I'll clean them with alcohol. But that's if they become itchy. And maybe go a couple of days without wearing your earrings.
