Suggest Remedies For Swelling And Pus Filled In The Ear Piercing
Earring hole is swollen full of puss and bleeding. I have been cleaning it w warm wash rag followed by hydrogen peroxide. Looks as if white hard ball is stuck inside hole. But nothing will get it out. Also now noticing very tender swollen gland under ear. And zits forming behind and around ear (neck and face) can this be solved with Epsom salts neosporn and rubbing alcohol? Or is there something worse to fear?

U have to stat visit an ENT specialist. Stop all these manoeuvres. Stat start antibiotics and combiflam along with ear drops which can be best prescribed after checking. But in the meantime can start candibiotic/ soli wax drops. Ear needs to be cleaned and checked
