A couple of years back i got my ears pierced and since that day they were very itchy,and i noticed that a bump formed, its hard and when i squeeze it nothing comes out. So when i got my 3rd ear piercing it did the same thing. So i took them out for about 8 months already, and they haven t technically closed. How can i get rid of the bump? I really want to get rid of it and re-pierce my ears so i can wear earring for my wedding...please helpp!
Hello, I understand your concern. I am Chat Doctor, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query. In my opinion it is hyperplastic healing tissue. You should tell this problem to doctor before piercing the ear. Because once the problem started it will be very difficult to contain them. I advise you to start using steroid before the piercing has happened. Right now the treatment will not affect much to your lesion. But you can try the injection triamcinolone in the bump. It will slowly digest the bump, and it gradually disappears. If you start using the injection before piercing nothing will happen. I advise you to take above treatment under your doctors' guidance. Please maintain local hygiene by cleanliness and frequent Chat Doctor.  This will aid in your routine healing process. I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/
