Well, your earrings, not being alive, are probably not infected.

Your piercings may be, however.

Pain, redness, warmth and swelling are the classical signs of inflammation. If you have those symptoms, then it's fairly likely you have an infection. You can treat it with an appropriate disinfectant such as hydrogen peroxide; if it's severe, you might want to see a physician.
