Infected Piercing?!? Help!!!
By Velvettblu •
I think one of my old piercings is infected. I mean..I'm pretty sure it is, and the jewelry's not in anymore which is BAD. Does anyone know of any products sold in stores here that I could use? Or if there are good skin doctors/dermatologists? I was looking for non-iodized sea salts to do a soak to draw out the infection but I don't know where to find any!!!!
Thanks all for responses. However, if anyone has specific information on how to go about finding a dermatologist and/or setting an appointment at a hospital, that'd be great! also, regarding payment, is a saico card enough? Or do you need Qatari ID with that?
1-Al Ahli hospital has good Dermatologist Specialists
2-Higeen Iodine
Antiseptic solution (non staining, non irritating)
Why dont you go see a dermatologist?
I concur with hydrogen peroxide. After soaking a cotton ball squeeze on the infected area and it will bubble up. Apply a few times a day. It will do the trick.
put 2 other piercings near it. it will get rid of it for sure.
once the same thing happened to my nipple piercing. and now 1 of my nipple is gone... YAYY!!!!
I agree with above. Get hydrogen peroxide and wipe the infected area with this on cotton swipe/soak several times per day. You can get the hydrogen in most supermarkets & pharmacies. QR 6.- for a bottle. Improvement should be within 24 hrs.
The first time I got my ears pierced, one lobe became infected. The doctor told me to use 'hydrogen peroxide'. Apply by soaking a cotton ball or qtip and use it liberally thru-out the day/night. It took about a week,before going back to normal.
I think it would be better for you (for your peace of mind) to consult a doctor for your infection problem. Doctors know what is best for you, at least they are trained to do so. Rather than self-prescribing for medicines or whatever remedy which you haven't heard of before... that's a total risk... go with the safest way...for your peace of mind as well.
Use Soframycin Skin Cream and see the results next day.
All the best
Hello go to the near Pharmacy and buy ((( FUCIDIN )))
on the box there is a red line be sure of it because there is many kind of it.
This cream is specialy for infected percing and another things infected in the body.
Good Luck !!!!!!
You don't need sea salts. Any salt will act as a disinfectant. Boil some water, pour normal table salt into the water, let it cool to a bearable temperature, and then soak for as long as you can be bothered to hold it. You may want to put the piercing back in as soon as you can if you don't want it to close up.
Btw hi!
