If the earlobe has no obvious symptoms of congestion and swelling, no special treatment is needed for the time being, so follow-up observation should be paid attention to. Repeated rubbing and irritation of the earlobe should be avoided to avoid further spread of the lump. With the extension of time, some patients may have obvious keloid hyperplasia, which protrudes from the skin surface of the earlobe and may need further surgery.
Disinfect the surface of ear cavity with iodophor, and take anti-inflammatory drugs such as amoxicillin and potassium clavulanate orally. Don't touch the edema area, don't stay up late, eat lightly, and don't press the swollen part of the earlobe.
Nursing care of patients after auricular surgery
Immediately after ear piercing, apply 75% alcohol (medical iodine is also acceptable) locally, 2-3 times a day, at least 1 week. Chloramphenicol eye drops are not suitable because of the low content of active ingredients, and chlortetracycline ointment is not suitable because it is too sticky and easy to absorb dirty things. If the inflammation is still serious, seek medical attention in time.
After three days of ear piercing, it is best to replace it with fine needle ring earrings made of pure gold or sterling silver, which is beneficial to ventilation before and after ear piercing. If earrings are used, don't fasten the earrings and the needle holder too tightly, and it is best to leave a certain gap, otherwise it will easily cause swelling due to air tightness. Pay attention to washing earrings with disinfectant every two days when you just get pierced, and insist on at least 1 month and a half.
When you start to get your ears pierced, you should stick to wearing earrings, or you may recover. If it is inflamed, if it is not serious, you can wear sterilized medical silk thread on the ear hole instead of earrings to prevent the infection from getting worse. After at least half a year, you can take off your earrings at will without worrying about recovery.
