I pierced my ears myself, and they may be infected.

I pierced my own ears for all 4 of my piercing. The first two (in the middle of the ear lobes) I did a few months ago. I used a needle that I barely sterilized and then did not use a silver or gold earring. I think it is sterling silver, but I'm not sure. I did two more, right next to the other ones, two days ago, and they have been bleeding a little bit out of the holes and some clear puss has been coming out with the blood. I wear the same sterling silver earrings every day, and I never take them out. They are both bigger holes than most of my friends have and I don't know why, but they are a grayish color just around the holes. It hurts really badly, and I don't know if I should get it check out. HELP!!!
