You will notice the area of the piercing hole will gradually become more red, you also might see green or yellow-ish colored puss coming out of the piercing hole. If this happens continue to clean it, if the piercing seems to be getting worse, best thing to do is remove the piercing.

If it has a yellow blister it is infected. Moreover the skin near the piercing may become inflammed showing a red colour around it.
