Nose piercing
Hey guys,
I'm really hoping someone can help me out. I used to have a bump on the inside of my nose right where my nose ring was. My older sis called the lady that pierced my nose and she said it's perfectly normal to get a bump on/in your nose after you get it pierced. Well I've been cleaning my nose mostly everyday since I got it pierced, and the bump that was inside of my nose is now gone. My older sis had a bump on the outside of her nose, but now that is gone. I am really worried now, because I had a bump on the outside of my nose the other night. It looked like it could've been a blood blister or something like that. I made the mistake of picking at it until it started bleeding a lot. It was bleeding for a while, but it finally stopped. The bump was right by my nose ring. Now the left side of my nose is so0o0o red(the side it's pierced on). It feels like it could be scabbed up or something, but I'm not sure. I don't think I should've picked at the bump when it was there, but I did. Now I'm worried my nose will never get better. I'm probably not gonna be going back to the lady anytime soon because she's only at the place at certain times during the day. Does anyone think I should be worried at all, or should I just continue cleaning it and see if that helps? I've been cleaning it everyday with just soap and water, and trying to turn the ring. I have a nose screw in at the moment, and it's 18 gauge. I'm trying to look for this cream stuff that I used to put on it after cleaning it. If I touch my nose it doesn't really hurt, and I am still able to turn the ring. If anyone can please help. I'm really really worried right now. None of my piercings ever ended up like this before. I don't think it could be infected, because it would probably hurt a lot right now and have pus or something coming out of it wouldn't it? I don't wanna have to take it out, because I didn't get it pierced for nothing. :-( I really only want people who have/have had their noses pierced to answer this, because they'd probably know more about this. Thank you so much. Please answer ASAP! I don't really remember when I got it pierced. I'm pretty sure It's already been pierced for like 2 months. Healing time is 3-4 months for a nose. I just ordered a new nose ring off the internet and I want my nose to be healed if possible by the time I get my other nose ring so I can switch it. <3

I have the same exact problem with mine, and you'd be surprised at how common "the bump" is.
But yeah... I tried to pop mine too. Big mistake.
I read that doing heat compresses and soaking it in diluted salt water (non-iodized sea salt, not table salt-- which I made the mistake of using-- because it dries out the new cells that are trying to form around the piercing)for about 3-4 minutes should help... or so I've read.
Also, you turn yours?
I have a screw as well... and I was told to never turn it-- it's not like an ear piercing.
Anyways, please let me know how it works out for you, because I'm trying to heal mine as well. I've only had my nose pierced for maybe a month or so, so I'm new to this.
Best of luck. <3
