Get Rid of Bumps on Cartilage Piercing
Infection bumps on cartilage piercings are annoying, painful, and overall yucky and without the proper care can cause more serious problems.
Steps
- Crush up an aspirin tablet.
- Mix the aspirin powder with water. Make a paste.
- Apply the aspirin paste to the infection bump.
- Let the paste sit on the bump for about 30 minutes.
- Wash the paste off and clean your piercing with antibacterial soap.
- Clean your piercing with antibacterial soap and sea salt mixture (about a tsp. of sea salt with about a cup of water) daily.
Tips
- Try not to touch your piercings too much.
- If the paste doesn't work the first time, apply another batch.
- Make sure to clean your jewelry and piercing daily.
- Use a clean Q-tip to apply paste.
