I got my nose pierced 2month ago and I have this bump next to it. it bleeds from time to time. is it infected?

Question

At first i thought it was just a pimple, but it's not going away and it's right next to my piercing....

Answer 1

you should first go to the person that pierced your nose and if he/she says nothing wrong w/ it then maybe its true but it could be something else but for now you should just take it off.and go to your Doctor and get it checked.hope it helps

Answer 2

it sounds like a keloid (overgrowth of scar tissue) how long have you had the piercing for? I had a keloid on my upper cartilege piercing of my ear but it went away when my hair sylist got the jewelry stuck ont he comb and pulled up really fast. making my piercing bloody but it got rid of it even thogh it hurt alot =( to me it sounds liek a keloid. it can only be removes by sugery.

so how long have you had the piercing and did you take care of it everyday till it was fully healed? (piercing solution, sea salt soaks?)


you shoudl go back tot he shop where you got it done at and see what they can do for it. it maybe somthign differnt but it wounds liek a keloid to me. so go the the pierce studio you got it done at and get an opinion. if they cant do anythign then go to the doctors but whatever you do DO NOT TAKE OUT YOUR JEWELRY if the doc tells u too especially if your piercing is failry new

Answer 3

I would probably take that ring out and DEFINITELY see a Doctor.
If it bleeds off and on, that is not normal. Also the actual piercing is not bleeding, it is beside it, sound like it could be something totally seperate from your piercing. Please have that checked out.

Answer 4

Take that thing out of your nose and let it heal up before you lose part of your nose.

Answer 5

Just go to a doc and have it checked to be on the safe side.
