Whats the best cleanser to use on a piercing?
Bensalkonium Chloride is a good all-purpose antibiotic cleanser and soother for a fresh piercing. You can find it in over-the-counter products like Bactine ® by “Bayer ® and Ear Care ® by “Inverness ®” at most pharmacies. You can also use natural sea salt (not table salt) after a couple of weeks to help flush out trapped bacteria and alleviate soreness around the surrounding skin tissue.
