I got my eyebrow done about 5 weeks ago.  I stopped all aftercare after 2 1 2 weeks as advised.

It seems to be pussing and is a little red.  what's going on?  Should I try to clean it or ignore it?  When is the pussing supposed to stop?

Are you still moving the ring at all?  Have you possibly bumped the piercing in your sleep or with glasses?

What colour is the puss and is it hot to touch?

What was your aftercare?  Do you have a ring or a barbell?

The more information you can provide, the more we can help.

The puss is yellowish white and I don't believe it is hot to the touch.  I have a ring in, and have been following your aftercare (softsoap for 2 1 2 weeks twice a day at first and then weaning off till I don't touch it at all).  I avoid turning the ring, however when I try to clean the puss off it (by using a warm compress and the tip of a kleenex) it does occasionnaly move a bit....kind of hard to keep it still.

I may have bumped it in my sleep...would changing it to a barbell cut down on the risk of bumping it?  Or do I need to wait for the pussing to stop to change it?

How is the piercing doing now?  With respect to not moving the ring, you do your best is all we can expect.

The ring will move on its own as well.  Changing it after 6 weeks, as long as its healthy would be a good idea.

When the eyebrow gets bumped, it can very easily become bruised and puss.

Hope its doing well.
