My ears became really swollen so I put neosporin on them and after a couple days my ears were back to normal.
Tea tree oil!! All the way! Also, witch hazel is good if tee tree doesn’t work for you. Put it on several times a day while you are stretching your ears. Keep them clean! In the beginning stretching phase don’t touch your ears unless you have just washed your hands.
After they heal its not easy for them to get infected since it’s not an open wound anymore. I wash mine in the shower with either face wash or body wash and always make sure your ear jewelry is clean and that you arent allergic to the kind of metal or acrylic.
I wash my ears with antimicrobial soap and water daily in the morning as I’m getting ready for work. If I miss a day, its ok as long as its just once. I also rinse my ears in the shower too.
Keep the plugs/gauges and your ears as clean as possible! I also massage coconut oil onto my lobes several times a week.
