Citation to a case that has been cited in full in the same general discussion may be shortened to one of the following forms if the shortened citation clearly identifies the case. Note that the short forms listed below give only one or neither of the parties.
Clean your piercing regularly for the first few weeks. Cleaning your piercing on a regular basis will help stimulate healing and prevent an infection. As a result, you should use a saline solution on your ears every day, and clean your piercing with soap as needed (once a day at most) for the 4-6 week healing period.
Never touch the piercing unless you are cleaning it. Use an anti-bacterial soap that has triclosan or chloroxylenol. Clean the piercing once or twice a day. When cleaning the piercing, dab a cotton bud with water and antibacterial soap, leave it on the area for a few minutes, and carefully rotate the jewelry. Rinse the area thoroughly and do not leave any cleaning agent. Do not make it in contact with any facial or hair products like makeups, hairsprays, and perfumes.
