I am embarking on a 5 day backpacking trip and I recently got my cartilage pierced of my ear…
The piercing is only a week old and I am scared of an infection. Any suggestions?

    because you will sweat make sure to take care of it. buy little packets of alcohol wipes, (sallys, walmart, target,etc.) hand sanitizer before you hadle your piercing

    Take alcohol wipes to clean it with, as well as a tube of antibiotic ointment to use on it.

    Go to your local tattoo parlor. Buy H2Ocean. Works better than alcohol. And doesn’t sting. Just spray and go.
