Hi

I got my eyebrow pierced about 2 weeks ago and now it is pussing a little bit. I am down to cleaning it 2-3 times a week and I don't use Polysporin any more. Should I be cleaning it more?.. or less?

-Thanks

Please stop cleaning and turning the ring.  The puss is a signal that you are over cleaning.  Before it becomes an infection, stop all aftercare.

At this stage, you should not be doing anything to the piercing.  When you wash your face, just soap as normal (avoiding the piercing).  Then rinse.  Pat dry.

If you notice any dry crusties, place a warm cloth on the piercing for about a minute (to soften them).  Then take a Q-tip and remove the crusties, without moving the ring.  If the piercing looks dry or chapped, take another Q-tip and with a water based moisturizer apply until absorbed.
