so, I’ve got my helix pierced around 10 days ago. the first week everything was going smoothly and I was sure nothing would happen since i’ve been cleaning it 2 times per day (sometimes even 3). Around 4 days ago my friend accidentally threw a ball at my ear and it hurt a lot, but I washed it right after and everything returned to normal. Yesterday it started pulsating and today it started swelling, this morning it wasn’t that swelled, but right now it’s really swelled and is pulsating a lot. What should I do to heal this (probably) infection FAST before my parents make me take it out???
