double helix

Posted by chem_girl00 on March 4, 2022 at 3:57 pm

Hi! I got a double helix on Feb 3rd with surgical steel. Everything was well and my ear looked completely normal from day 2 up to 2 weeks after the piercing was done. Since then, I have a painful red an swollen ear… Is it normal? I don’t sleep on it, don’t touch it, clean with PurSan once a day and saline spray twice a day. Is it an infection or just irritation? Could I be reacting to the metal even if everything was fine for the first 2 weeks?
