Ear piercing pain

[Inge]

Iv had my ears pierced for 4 years now and theyv been fine since then. But I used some earrings that had sort of rubber-y poles (theyr clear and feel rubbery or plasticy not sure what their made of) and since wearing them for a few days one of my piercings feels painful to put a stud in and feels sore to touch. Iv now throw out those earrings (from matalan) and have some solid silver ones in. Just took them out and the piercing that hurts was a bit crusty after it had bled abit when the stud went in. Should I just leave some studs in for a few days or weeks and keeping turning it like when they were first pierced? Anything I can put on it to keep it clean?

Id clean them with warm salty water. That's what I used when I first got my pierced and they were like that (sore and a lil crusty around the earring)

If I wear any earrings other than sterling silver, then my skin gets really sore and red and very icky tbh. I normally leave the earrings out for a few days and clean it with Savlon spray.

thanks guys! Iv given it a clean with some stuff I used when I had my last piercing and doesnt look as bad or hurt as bad now. Im just sticking to the earrings that are silver as thats the only ones I can wear
