industrial piercing won't heal!
I got my industrial pierced about two months ago and one of the holes will not stay healed. Sometimes it gets a red blister-looking lump that pops up right where the piercing is. It doesn't hurt incredibly bad but it's annoying because it doesn't look good. I really don't want to take it out because i paid 70 to get it pierced and plus i like it. Anyways I clean it with peroxide and alcohol and the red bump still stays.
What should i do?

I had a problem similar to that when I got my middle cartilage pierced. It healed but then I got a red bump around it. My doctor said I was most likely having an allergic reaction to the earring. He said it's common because that area of your ear doesnt ave a lot of blood flow in it. He told me to take it out, but I think that if I had put a higher quality earring in it might have cleared up!

ok well wehn i got mine i had to tiny bars on each hole and that stayed in for like 2 weeks they were fine of course and i had to clean it with sea salt that you can get probally at the place you got it peirced or hot topic store. only 15 dollars. okay anyway it one night randomly was seriously bleeding but it didnt hurt so i have like blood stains like i had my period on my bed so gross. i dont know what happend but when i went to change it into a bar i cleaned it i didnt really take it out beacuse it hurt and ive had it for a year almost now and when i take my bar out it gets really sore so i dont know. but the point to all this is to get seasalt cleaner it seriously works my sore ear after changing it feels SO much better. try it. or go back to the guy who did it he can help

I had my industrial done back in January, and it took about three months to completely heal, which is normal. One product I used was called H2Ocean, a purified salt water solution spray (you can actually make it yourself. Boil some water, then once it's distilled, disolve sea salt into it). The salt actually helps with those annoying red bumps.
Industrials and belly button piercings, I've heard (and can back up from my experiences since I have both) are two of the piercings that take the longest time to heal. Just keep it clean, try out the salt solution, and stop using peroxide and alcohol- it can dry out the area and leave it more irritated. Hope this helps!
