New piercing

Had my ears pierced today, at a place with a needle and not a gun- didn't like it at all but realise it's better!! The man said not to do anything. I knew not to twist but I'm surprised I don't need to clean, is this right?

Spray once or twice a day with a saline solution for piercings like neilmed and dry with a paper towel or cool setting on hairdryer.

You should probably do this until you get the jewellery downsized, so 4 weeks or so.

It's called leave it the hell alone method. Mine have healed so much better than the ones I cleaned a few times a day. Listen to your piercer.

Yep. Do not fiddle with your piercings.

Good call on getting them done properly and professionally with a needle, and not some amatuer with a gun.
