Will my ear get infected if the earing came out? I was cleaning my ear/earing and the back popped out and the earing came out. I immedially cleaned my ear and the earring and put it back in, then put neosporn on it. Will it get infected? Cuz i heard if you take the earing out it will get infected. How should i keep it from getting infected?

Best Answer

just because the earring came out does not mean it will get infected.

your ear will get infected, however, if you are constantly touching it/twirling it, if you pick at it, or if any bacteria gets into it.

You did the right thing by cleaning your ear and the earring before putting it back in. the neosporin was unnecessary, and i%26#039;d watch it for a few days just incase. i have 5 holes in each ear =P
