I think I might be alergic to sterling silver. Should I take it out and put a real gold bone in it

i would advise you go back to the person who did your piercing, but since they did your initial piercing with sterling silver, then they are no good! they should have done your initial piercing with stainless surgical steel...please find a reputable piercer in your area that uses stainless surgical steel for your initial piercing.
in the meantime if you want to save your piercing, go find a surgical steel nose ring asap to put in from a more reputable piercing place! a good piercing place will help you with your problem. if not, then you will have to wait until it heals and closes up and try again through a reputable piercer.
to heal/clear up the infection, try sea salt soaks (a pinch of sea salt in 3 oz of hot tap water, soak a cotton ball and put it over your piercing for 5 minutes). it worked for me!

I have my nose pierced, too. It depends on how long you had the piercing before you accidentally pulled it out. If it has been awhile, like the recommended 6 weeks, then you should just clean it with an anti-bacterial soap, like Dial, 3 times a day and then when the infection is gone you can put a nose ring back in. The only problem is that the hole could close up by then, so if possible, and I know it will be painful, put a stud back in it (if you think you're allergic to sterling silver, than use surgical steel or gold) and then vigorously clean it with the anti-bacterial soap. I also received a spray to use when I got mine pierced, but I don't know if that was an option for you. Just remember that cleaning it is the most important thing that you can do at this point!! :)

Hi, I would suggest Peroxide to clean the infection and Neosporin or some other Antibiotic ointment to help with healing. I have a belly ring that became infected and this is what I used. It worked for me. It was suggest by the person who did the piercing. Good luck hope it heals with no scars. Yes if you think you are allergic to sterling take it out and put something else in.
