nose piercing bleeding
I got my nose pierced in early september. I've changed my ring a few times and I noticed that every time I change it, my nose bleeds... a lot. My other friends have their nose pierced and they said it never bleeds when they change it, and they just got theirs done at the same time as me..
Also, theres like a clump of skin right next to the piercing and under that clump of skin theres dried blood.. it just looks kinda weird. What should I do about this? Go to a doctor? go to a piercing place and have them look at it? Should i try cleaning it with salt solution?

If the skin/blood thing your talking about looks kind of like a pimple, thats normal. It's just part of the healing process. Your nose was probably NOT ready to be changed; everyone has a different healing time. I've had my nose pierced since I was 14 and I'm 19 now. I've never had the bleeding problem before, or the whole skin and blood thing either. From what I researched over the internet, it's probably infected. You can't switch out an earring used for piercing with a total fake one. You may have to either pop the skin bubble, and give it a couple of weeks of healing, and stop changing the nose ring during that time. I learned it was best to use saline solution for cuts and bruises; that works really well and calms the bleeding (i have a triple helix) so thats what I used.
If things don't get better within a nother 2 weeks, I'd either take it out, or go to the piercing place and ask them. Doctors can't do much about it, considering its a piercing and not a body problem.
Good Luck!
