How can I keep my pierced ears open?

I've had my ears pierced for about a year, and I've been wearing earrings the whole time. But recently my piercing got infected, so I took out the earrings and used some antibiotics. But now I've noticed that it has turned into this! I need to get my piercing redone. Is there a good way to prevent the piercing from closing up?#earrings #AskLemon8 #beauty
