yes, its probably infected Jess you have to clean it with alcohol and/or peroxide
due to your allergies and allergy to gold; you probably should NOT wear earrings

I am allergic to gold also, and I can only wear certain karats. For this reason, I do not wear earings..its not worth the pain or hassle.

Not a big deal, Jess, it happens to all of us.
If you're interested in getting the earring back in, put a little bacitracin on it to kill the bacteria and slime it up, and then ram it back in there.
If not, alcohol up the front and back of your earlobe. Maybe some bacitracin there too - that stuff works wonders. It'll be okay in a few days.

it will work, but it's not as good - does not disinfect as well
