I just got my cartilage pierced today with a needle, and I don't know much about the aftercare. I just know I should use antibacterial soap and saline solution. Should I start cleaning right after I get it done, or should I wait till the next day? And would I need to rotate/twist it, though I have a captive bead ring, not a stud. Oh, and is it okay to put sunscreen on my ear because I have a soccer game tomorrow :\

Did you get this professionally done?

They should have given you all the after care instructions. If you're unsure, you need to call them and ask them to clarify.
