What does a healing piercing look like?

Discoloration (redness) and itching during healing process are also fairly common. Secretion of a whitish-yellow fluid (not pus) is part of the healing process and is to be expected. It is liquid when it leaves the body but dries into “crusties.” Piercings will go through “ups and downs” while healing.

What age is best to pierce ears?

What should I wear after getting my ears pierced?

At two weeks, the piercing is not healed. You really should not remove the earring at all until it is completely healed. Taking it in and out before it heals just risks infection and injury, makes it longer to heal, and risks that you won’t be able to heal right and keep an earring in it.
