Girls, I got a nose piercing problem?

[wildermind]

about two months ago. It still hasn't fully healed. I can't take it out without a stinging pain. A bump on the inside of my nose has also appeared. It isn't too big but it's right next to where the nose ring hole is. It doesn't hurt when I touch it, it's just sort of there. I also recently got an annoying little bump on the outside of my nose, right next to the ring. It's pretty gross looking. Is there anyone who knows what the heck these bumps are coming from, if I can fix it, and why it's been two months and my nose still hasn't been healed? Thank you ahead of time!

I've had this happen to mine, honestly i've had mine for over 5 years and it's still sensitive. Mine did the same thing a couple of times at first, I got a bump but I put antibiotic cream on it and it went down, also be sure your makeup doesn't get in it if you wear any. I always take a qtip and clean around it with peroxide also and you might need to just change it out.

Sounds infected if the pain is that bad. You might have to take it out.
I've had my nose pierced 4 times. Had to take it out each time. I have a really thick nose and everyone who's pierced it says the same thing. Though, I have a lot of ear piercings, an eyebrow and a navel ring. They're all fine.

Why are you asking us, hurry up and go see a doctor. We can't help you as effectively as they can.

There's is a lot of dirt in the nose due to the fact it works as a filter. If your piercing is infected it's not too surprising.

What are you cleaning it with and have you been messing with it a lot or getting make up in it? Call the piercing shop you had it done at and ask them about it. I've never had any problems with any of my piercings.

Turns out I'm allergic to the medical grade metal they used. Sounds like you have exactly the same reaction. I pulled mine out after about 6 months because I couldn't stand the bump inside my nose. lvex it... But piercings don't agree with me.

Your piercing is probably irritated. Wheb the piercing is 'upset' those bumps can appear. They'll go when the inflammation goes down!! Keep it clean and don't move it around. nose piercings need 6 months to fully heal

you're meant to keep it in for a year i think, you should be cleaning it with antibacterial wash using a cotton bud and you shouldn't be touching it or taking it out.

Sounds like an allergic reaction. Had the same problem with earrings.

Bumps are totally normal. Just keep it clean and they'll go down
