We have an aftercare section on this forum, please look for soft tissue and see what we have our clients do.
Salt water is something that we do not believe is healthy for any piercing. It will dry the tissues out and retard the healing process.
If you have yellowish puss coming from the piercing, then you have irritated it enough that it is upset and responding appropriately. Please stop using the salt water and just do some warm water compresses 2 times a day for about 10 minutes.
Keep in touch with your progress.
