VainTaraLynn answered Monday November 13 2006, 12:00 am: I disagree with the other answer. I have 13 piercings haha, so I know quite a bit about them. I pierced my nose myself, and although that didnt happen to me, I read about it before I did it and it's normal. Sometimes when its healing it will heal in the form of a scab. If it starts to raise up a little bit, then put more rubbing alcohol/peroxide on it, because theres a possibility that it could get infected. If it doesnt hurt, though, then i'd say dont worry about it. Usually if it hurts its a sign that its infected. Basically, it's there because its healing and yes it will go away when its done. Keep rubbing alcohl on it and twisting it every now and then, and take care of it good =] [ VainTaraLynn's advice column | Ask VainTaraLynn A Question ]
