Ear piercing

Asked for Female, 15 Years

I got my ears pierced several months back and changed my earrings too quickly. for the first few weeks i didn't notice any infection or anything. but then after a while i noticed puss and that wasn't nice. and then afterwards i noticed some swelling. the swelling has occurred around both earrings around the butterflies at the back and i can't get the earrings out. my earlobes used to hurt and itch however now they don't hurt or itch anymore. however if i try to get the earrings out they will. what should i do? will the swelling go away on it's own?
