if you want to see something horrific;
so that's my gross ear, and not only does it look gross, it smells fucking gross. Its leaking yellow and green pus and blood.. and my gland/lymph node whatever it is under the piercing is all swollen too.. It hurts SO much i need painkillers to sleep..
SO. it's three weeks since it was pierced, it was fine until two days ago.. the piercer says that he wants to take it out and clean it (aka squeeze the fuck out of my ear) then leave it to heal.. and then re-pierce it.
Now that sounds horrifying to me, it's already far too painful to touch near it, I don't want him squeezing it/cleaning it/taking the jewelry out of it!! OUCH
And apparently it hurts even more to get it re-pierced the second time.. so I wouldn't do it, and I don't want to get rid of these piercings cause I do rather like them.. and I really don't want to have them taking out tomorrow
I kinda want to just leave them in and take super care of them, do several hot salt soaks a day and take my hippy medicine for infections and hope they will get better..
Opinions? 
I am a fan of leaving them in and cleaning them (squeeze, and rubbing alcohol) every six hours or so... lesser as they heal. [Unless they're too bad, but then you've got a fever within two days of the puss setting in and you know it's more than just an infected spot.]
