I have a question about my helix piercing!!
I had it piercing late July and kept it in for about 3 months till I decided to put on a new ring. I had no advice from my piercer on how to take care of it so I ended up making some mistakes but eventually I learned. I'll admit I got a bit impatient when it came to healing but I after I lost one of the back pieces to my cartilage earring I had to put back the other one I had. I bought this pack from Claire's and it didn't mention it being sterling silver but I asked one of the employees if it was safe and she said it was, I put on the earring but I'm noticing a small bump on the back of my ear and I'm not sure if it's cause of the earring or if it's an infection. What should I do?

I've only had my ears pierced. I was told to use 14-carat gold or surgical-grade stainless steel earrings. I believe sterling silver is okay. Clean using saline solution. I would clean my original ring with soap and area with saline. I would also call and asking your piercer. If it does not clear up, go to a doctor.
