I would clean them , put peroxide on them and also antibiotic cream. I friend of mine got her new earrings that are a loop and there one solid piece , so I put them on her and can you believe they don't get infected no more. I found out the backing on the ones we got from the mall are fake. Can you believe that. They give you fake backings on babys earrings. I am so mad about this. I have never been able to wear any kind of metal or silver only gold. My poor Madison has the same problem now. I just wanted to let you guys know so you can check them out before you buy them.

Make sure they use surgical steel, or I think (for an extra price, of course) you can get 'pure' gold or silver. -------------------- Beverly, DH Eje, and mom to PJ, 20 Leah, 18 Sara, 16 Anders, 5 and Emily, almost 2 "A mother holds her children's hands for just a little while, but she holds their hearts forever."

My sister got her daughters ears done at the same place and the back of her ears turned green.The earrings that Maddie has in now are 1 full piece there is no back and in 1 month her ears cleared up and are fine now. The place I got them done at has been there for a long time and there in the mall.

Me too, Me too!! Group: Members Posts: 2,795 Member No.: 26 Joined: 28-February 03	Then I think I would be taking them back and asking them what gives? Especially since they are supposed to be 14 K - -------------------- Beverly, DH Eje, and mom to PJ, 20 Leah, 18 Sara, 16 Anders, 5 and Emily, almost 2 "A mother holds her children's hands for just a little while, but she holds their hearts forever."

Her ears turned green, the backing was fake!!! I have recently bought her hoop earings with dolphins on them. Real gold. She is fine now. Make sure you ask about the backings. It could save you time and money and the pain your baby may go through.
