do not take the earings out. if you do, and your ear heals, you will have a inner ear infection which is worse... i mean that you have to get inside the ear w/ needles and stuff than... yeeaaah...i wouldn't do that if i were u.
OrionsFire answered Wednesday May 18 2005, 2:51 pm: Don't take out the earrings, it will only create more problems if you heal in the infection. You are going to want to wash your ear twice a day with anti-bacterial soap (Dial) and let it heal on it's own.
Karen answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 9:41 pm: You don't have to take out the ear rings; just make sure you clean both the ear rings and the are around the infection and it will heal soon. If it doesn't heal, then you should take them out. [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]
RBfootballTD answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 8:58 pm: im not too sure about the earings, i doubt it, but if you ever want to check and see if you have an ear infection, then just pull your earlobe and if it hurts, then you have one and should see a docter, or if it doesnt, then its just a cold or pretty much anything BUT and ear infection so, you shouldnt really need to worry about it...

Igotamonopoly answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 8:52 pm: An ear infection is inside your head. If your piercing got infected, yes you need to let it close completely, and don't wear whatever type of earrings you wore. Ex: Nickel, gold, silver...you may have just had an allergic reacion.

LilBSUBabe08 answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 8:44 pm: I cant tell if your talking about an inner ear infection or an infection where your earings are in place. If your talking about an inner ear infection, then you dont have to take your earings out. You will just need to go to the doctor and get an antibiotic. If you are talking about an infection where your earing is, then you need to take them out and clean the infection. I would not put the earings back in until you feel like the ifection is better. If you are really worried, go to the doctor or ask your parents. Hope I Helped Hun! Good Luck! [ LilBSUBabe08's advice column | Ask LilBSUBabe08 A Question ]

Teza answered Tuesday May 17 2005, 8:27 pm: Dont take it out because it will close. Take it out and clean it. Put the earings in alchocol for about 10 minutes and then wash it with just water. That gets all of the germs out and makes it more clean. Clean your earing at least 2 times a month. ♥ [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
