A kid I once knew pierced his ears with darts. I pissed in his mouth when he was sleeping once. Moral of the story: I piss in peoples mouths when they sleep.

not really, peroxide will work. The key is to keep it clean, and if you used a stud to pierce it, keep turning the stud every so often to keep it from growing over.

Peroxide can cause more noticeable scarring I believe (as it kills exposed cells), although I'm not sure if that's a major concern here. Earlobe piercing I presume?

Re-thinking about piercing my ear is giving me the willies. I could feel -and hear- the needle going through different layers of skin, arrrrghghggh.
The best thing to use on a freshly pierced ear is salt water, and especially triple antibiotic ointment. Peroxide and alcohol will kill infection, but will also kill new cells attempting to heal the hole. I have successfully pierced my ear and eybrow using the above, and neither ever got infected.

When I got my labret piercing done, I used an anti-bacterial body wash two or three times a day, and occasional soaks with sea salt and water. I think any antibacterial soap will do you better than peroxide.

I pierced my own tounge and my clit...but for some reason not my ears. My mom did those for me. I always use Bactene for piercings...it works pretty well.

thanks for all the good advice people. yeah, the whole hearing the needle pierce the diff. layers of skin was pretty rough. i first pierced w/ a sewing needle and pulled it right out and couldn't put the ring in. then i read up on the proper procedure online (yeah, i'm dumb) and tried again a couple hours later, repiercing the same hole.
so can just soak in salt water for a while twice a day or what? i just did peroxide but i don't wanna kill the good cells or something.
ifallapart, you pierced your own clit? or someone did it for you? holy crap either way, i'm sure that stings a bit.

I have a buddy that pierced his ball sac himself ..... this was ofcourse completely by accident. He was drunk and got a knife to stab someone because they pissed him off. He fell over onto the knife and it stabbed him in the balls. I rushed him to the hospital and he didn't die like I thought he would.
