My ear lobes have little ball like things in there....?!
Question: My ear lobes have little ball like things in there.....?
Ok,well I got my ears pierced about 3 years ago and religiously cleaned them with the liquid stuff I got until the bottle was empty. Well they were fine for a while, and now they are swollen ish (they kind of hurt when I touch them, but not too much) but they don't look red or swollen. They also have little what feel like "balls" when I touch it. They don't like roll around but they are in there. so I guess this means they are infected, but what should I do.? They're not going shut or anything, they just hurt when I put earrings in. And its only one piercing in each ear in the normal place, nothing funky. All kind answers are appreciated. So If you have time, please answer, I really want to resolve this!

its infected. don't wear earrings for a few days and keep cleaning the ears with alcohol, make sure you clean your earrings before you put them back in with alcohol too.Health Question & Answer
if they are swollen and sore they are infected. the little balls though are just scar tissue and don't mean anything.
clean a pair of stud earrings with rubbing alcohol and leave them in your ears. clean them off once a day until they stop hurting, that means the infection is gone. Health Question & Answer
