Okay Update guys: I've been soaking with saline solution wound wash from CVS and rinsing in the shower w water and antibacterial soap 2x a day! So far so good, I have crusties and a little itchiness which I hear is a good sign

saline solution or antibacterial soap are the most recommended methods of cleaning piercings. just make sure you rinse well with water after using either.

don’t recommend doing saline and antibacterial soap. over cleaning can be harmful too. i’d do one twice a day
