Yes, there can be a connection. If you have a bacterial infection in your sinuses, then you are probably blowing your nose/ touching your nose a lot. Since the ear piercing is new you are probably touching it a lot/ rotating it a lot. Bacteria may have been transferred from your nose/ sinus via your finger to your ear. Just put hibiclens, or some other antiseptic on your ear a few times a day.

What do you do if in between and around the top of your belly button piercing is a reddish purple?

If its new, give it about a week for the discoloration to disappear. Bruising can be normal especially if clamps were used. If its older, it could be rejecting or even infected. Go to your piercer to figure it out. Don't take the jewelry out. If its infected, you'll need the piercing to stay open so that it can drain.

What is the difference between latent infection and inapparent infection?

An inapparent infection occurs when a susceptible person is exposed to an agent, is consequently infected, but neverdevelops clinical symptoms (subclinical). An inapparent infection may result in immunity - but they may not develop immunity and could even become a carrier.In contrast, an exposed susceptible person may develop symptoms (clinical infection), but later enter a period where they no longer exhibit those symptoms. This person would be said to have a "latent infection". They have not recovered - they are still infected -- and they might start to exhibit clinical symptoms later.Exposed ---- Infected ------ no symptoms --------------------------------------> Resolution INAPPARENT INFECTIONExposed ---- Infected ----- symptoms ----no symptoms ---- symptoms ----> Resolution|< Latent Infection>|- Dominick A.

What is the inccubation for HIV?

The term incubation is not generally used in reference to HIV infection. However, there is a period of time when someone can be infected with the virus and test negative. The "window period" refers to the period of time between when someone is infected with HIV until they can test positive. The "window period" is anywhere between 28 and 90 days after infection. The "window period" occurs because the standard HIV tests detect anitbodies that occur as a result of HIV infection. Antibodies are not immediately detectable after infection.
