How long should I wait to change my earrings after getting my ears pierced?
It takes about seven days after piercing the ears to change the earrings. If the healing is good after piercing the ears, the wound of the pierced ears will usually heal in about seven days. It is recommended to wear pure silver earrings after piercing the ears. Before wearing, sterilize them, and often rotate the earrings after wearing, otherwise the earrings are easy to adhere to the skin and flesh. After the wound stops bleeding, it can be sterilized by applying erythromycin eye ointment, or iodine tincture, mercurochrome, etc. The following points should be noted when piercing ears:
Rotate the ear needle every day, and then use alcohol cotton or cotton pads to sterilize the front and back of the pierced ears. In addition, if the pierced ears are not crooked, you can completely remove the ear needle (after 3-5 days) and sterilize the ear stick or ear needle. Endure the pain!
After piercing the ears, especially in winter, the ears will be very itchy. At this time, do not touch or scratch the pierced ears with your hands. Be patient and persistent, because only in this way can you ensure that the pierced ears heal normally without redness, swelling, or infection.
The wound of the pierced ears must not be exposed to water, keep it dry to prevent infection, and do not touch it randomly, because there may be bacteria on your hands or other locations, and contact with the wound is also prone to infection.
6-8 hours after routine pierced ear surgery, the earplugs should be partially relaxed to prevent obstacles in the blood flow of the earlobe, resulting in tissue necrosis and inevitable consequences.
Earrings and ear sticks may fall off when not paying attention after piercing the ears. Once they fall off, it means that they need to be reinserted. If the wound has healed well, it is less likely to cause redness, swelling, and infection. Therefore, after falling off, pay attention to sterilizing with alcohol and then patiently and slowly insert them.
