Just leave it alone. If it gets dirty by touching it or someother way just use antibacterial soap. Basically just don't do anything to it until it completely heals in a few months.

 

I say use salt water, thats what im using on my ear. Any salt will do, sea salt or table doesnt matter. If your near a beach go for a swim a few times a week would be great on any piercing.

 

don't use vodka (save that for drinkin)
use antibacterial soap, and try not to turn it until its healed. You'll be more likely to pull germs and crusties into the piercing doing that.

 

yea dude, don't use alcohol. Like someone else said use salt water or antibacterial soap. But they do sell this stuff in tattoo shops that work better than anything. Its called H2Ocean or something like that. It's basically ocean salt water with some antibacterial ingrediants.

 

oh jesus jesus christ.

this is why people shouldnt go to shit piercers that dont give aftercare (or atleast instructions)

alcohol. is terrible. sure, itll keep it clean. alcohol is good at killing things. such as new skin cells and all the good bacteria rumaging through your body. salt water compresses. antibacterial soap/gentle diluted BZK solutions. NOT FREAKEN VODKA.
