Answer #2

don’t clean it with soap its best 2 clean it with savlon woundwash or warm water with salt. When I gt mine done I got adviced to clean it with savlon woundwash and it helps. It is normal for blood 2 come out if it gets knocked or played with. If it starts hurtin or itching really bad go to your GP’s…hope it gets better:)

Answer #3

I have the same thing, I got mine like a month ago to. its been a while that my skin around it is red and kindof dry, and just today I turn it and finally puss came out. Its nothing to worry about, it is infected, all you have to do is take a glass put warm water and sea salt and let it soak for a bit, I usally do it for about 10 mins. My friend’s started bleeding too, no need to freak out, just clean it with salt water, do it maybe once or twice a day until it clears up. hope this works :)

Answer #4

Mix a little bit of sea salt into water. It’s cheaper than buying H20cean. I used it on my lip ring and it worked great. It relieved the pain and redness also. :D

Hope it helps.
