Best Answer: Clean the nouns with sea salt. you can draw from it at the grocery store. use warm water and add roughly speaking 1/4 tsp salt. to 1 cup water . use 3-4 times a day. this works for any piercing. With a feeler piercing you should expect that it's not going to look perfect until it's done healing.
