I once had the nape of my neck pierced. I was told to not touch it but once a week to clean it. I exercised, and just rinsed it with water, and did not touch it. if it is infected, I would suggest to rub tea tree oil on it after cleaning it once a week, and just LEAVE IT ALONE. You can always call the person that pierced it and ask them questions....

Your ear piercings try to close up after changing the earrings and something that looks a bit like pus comes out of the piercings?
Well it sounds like the piercings are not fully healed and the discharge you are getting (whitish/yellow) is lymphatic matter that the body generates as it tries to heal the piercings( this discharge is normal in all new piercings under a year old ). I would suggest you put in good quality jewellery in your piercings and leave them alone except for cleaning in the shower other than that let them heal up.
Do cartilage piercings close?
Yes, they do- however, it depends alot on the gauge of the needle and how capable your body is able to heal (which factors on age, diet, and health). The fresher the piercing, the less time it takes to heal shut- but it is more prone to infection. Smaller piercings do have a tendency to heal quicker, but it mostly depends on the area of skin that is pierced. Fleshy skin located close to blood vessles heal very quickly when hard cartilage and sparser areas of blood vessles take much longer. Note: ALL piercings should be done with a hollow needle.

Do they numb your face when you get an anti eyebrow piercing?
