If you have developed a pierced ear infection you should know that this can never be taken care of by peroxide alone. Hydrogen peroxide is a cleanser as well as a mild bleach. But it does not have any anti septic or anti fungal properties that would help to kill an infection, no matter how small it may be. The best thing to do in your case is to apply a paste made with clarified butter and turmeric powder. Turmeric powder has excellent anti septic properties that will help to heal the wound as well as kill any bacteria festering there. Clarified butter, also known as ghee is also an excellent product that has some healing properties. A mix of both of these when applied to your infected ear piercing should help to heal it. It is also possible to make your own clarified butter. Simply put unsalted butter to melt till it becomes clear. Strain this and use it. Make it a point to apply the solution when it is warm. This will help to heal your infection faster. You can use peroxide to clean the ear before you apply this paste. This will also ensure quicker healing. It is also good to drink a glass of hot milk at night to which a teaspoon of turmeric powder has been added. This will also help to heal your skin from within. You can also apply warm salt water to your ear. This will also help to take care of the pierce ear infection as well as sanitize the skin.
In order to enable your skin and body to heal faster you can also work towards improving your immunity. This can be done by taking a daily dose of Echinacea for at least a week. You will be able to buy this product in any store that sells natural and organic goods. It is available in pill as well as capsule form. Echinacea is also known as "the healing herb". It will help to heal almost any wound very quickly. One of the reasons your infection is unable to clear up could also be that you are continually touching the ear. You must not do this, as it will only tend to make matters worse. In fact, keep away from the ear as much as possible. It is also good to keep your hair tied up, if you have long hair. Keep the earlobe dry as much as you can.
