Swollen ear

2021-10-13 03:25:17
I've pierced me ear on Monday and it's paining which I think usually happens after piercing but it's swollen a little bit and a little redness is also there...Is it some kind of infection or is it something serious. I'm confused what to do, the guy who pierced told to not remove the piercing for 1 week.
