I've had several piercings and was always told to not remove them if they get infected, but it may be different in your case. Go to a doctor and talk to your piercer as soon as possible.

They will not only tell you what to do, but if it's salvageable, they have shit to help you out. Honestly, you probably just need to clean it better. I've had some serious infections in my gauged ears and gotten over all of them. [ sillyrob's advice column | Ask sillyrob A Question ]
