Can I apply an antibiotic ointment? If so, which one since I have polysporin, bacitin and bactroban. Thank you

Hi, my 6 1/2 month old daughter had her ears pierced 2 weeks ago. I disinfected her piercings with saline water morning and night. Since yesterday, I notice a redness around one ear.

Hello and thank you for the question,
You can use your bactroban 3 times a day.
If however there is no improvement in 3-4 days or if you see a worsening, I advise you to your pediatrician.
To relieve, I would also apply these cold compresses.
