Answer:
I used to pierce ears at Claire's and let me tell you, it will sting, that's normal. That being said, you should not have done this yourself. The smart thing to do right now is to take them out. I'm betting you won't though, so here's what you can do next.If your ears get really red, bleed, or puss, take out the earrings. Salt water is not a proper sterilizing liquid, get some peroxide or ear care solution from a store. Did you sterilize the needle before you pierced? If you didn't, your risk of infection is very high and you should immediately remove the earrings and wash with soapy water. Pain relief creams like neosporin might help if you choose to leave them in.Please don't do this again. Your ears are a fairly easy place to pierce, so hopefully you'll be lucky and not suffer any consequences. However, other parts of the body are much more dangerous to pierce at home, so don't venture any further without a professional's help.

wierdo why did u do that. i did it aswwell but i did it properly. the reason why its hurting is probably the way you pierced it.

go to the store and get some bactine as well. don't use any old bottle that's been lying around your house for some unknown quantity of time though because bactine has a shelf life once its opened. after a month or two of being open it starts to grow bacteria which could re-infect you. so pick up a new bottle and write the date you opened it on it so you know not to use it for too long. that along with the salt water should be fine. you have to remember that swelling is the bodies natural reaction to foreign objects in stick in its tissues so give it time...take an NSAID (advil) if you want...NSAIDS bring swelling down. it will go away in a few days -- no worries! :) i do this all the time

It needs to have a steel earing in it and alchohol to clean leave it alone take asprin/ibprofen every 4 hours. if it is stil swollen, or swollen with puss two days from now,go to the doctor

Use Peroxide on a Q-tip to help keep it cleen. If it continues to sting, you mite be infected.
