Infected conch?

I got my conch pierced late August and it has had no issues whatsoever. However, Friday morning I had a hair appointment and my hair dresser kept hitting my ear. When I woke up Saturday morning it looked like this: http://imgur.com/M25JX

Later that night I checked on it and it looked like this: http://imgur.com/kS039

I lightly cleaned it with some soap and water but didn't want to irritate it. Afterwards it looked like this http://imgur.com/CBYQj

And when I woke up this morning, it looked like this: http://imgur.com/w0TRU

I am really worried that it is infected. I do not have sea salt nor do I have a car. I still have the saline that I usually use, and tried a chamomile tea bag yesterday. I don't know what I should do. I could go to the doctors but idk if they're just going to tell me to take it out. And I have final exams this and next week and do not have time to go out and seek the advice of a piercer. Anyone have any advice?

Sorry for the crusty cell phone pictures.
