No, i dont reccomend using ear solution. WHen I got mine done, the guy said water was good for it, like going in the bath, shower, hot tub, pools, because it cleans it out. Some people might say no because chlorine, but my guy said it was fine. If your in sports (contact ones).. you might want to tape it so it doesn't get hit around or riped out. Hope this helped

How should I clean my new piercing?

Follow these steps to prevent infection

Wash your hands first with soap and water before touching or cleaning the pierced area. (Don't let anyone else touch the pierced area until it is healed.)
Remove any crusty material from the site and from the jewelry with warm water.
Gently wash the area around the piercing with antibacterial soap (liquid soap works the best).
Gently rinse off all of the soap and crusty discharge.
Gently dry the area with a paper towel or plain white napkin. (Bacteria can stay in cloth towels.)
Do steps 1-5 twice a day until the skin heals. (Over-washing or over-scrubbing can irritate the area.)
Do NOT use antibacterial ointments because they don't allow air to get to the area and they trap bacteria.
