​Boil your kettle and add the required amount of salt to a jam jar. Mix your boiled water into the jar and allow the salt to dissolve. (1/4 teaspoon of sea salt to 1/4 pint of boiled water)
Allow this to cool to a warm bath temperature.
Submerge your piercing in the jar of hot salt water and leave it there to soak for 4-5 minutes.

When you have finished soaking, take a cotton bud and wet it in the salt solution. Use this to clean around the ball/gem and the skin/piercing hole, gently removing any matter.
Rinse the piercing with clean water and let it dry.
You have also been given some homeopathic anti-inflammatory tablets.
The dosage is 1 tablet 3 times a day until they are finished.
Tip one from the bag into a container, then tip into the mouth and suck them like a sweet until they fully dissolve.
