A member asked:
My ear piercing is "flooding" my ears. 2 months in and this started out of nowhere 3 days ago. what is going on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
?: Don't know what you meant by flooding. Do you have trouble hearing? Is there any pain? With ear piercing there are two potential problems (1 infection causing swelling and pain (2) allergic contact allergy to the metal pin. Without more details, I can offer no opinion.
