Answer 1

I had a keloid on my nose piercing for like 4 months! i had tried everything i was about to take it out!! but no worries it WILL go away. try making a paste of aspirin and water and applying it. thats what made mine go away. i had also tried the salt water solution and tea tree oil. DONT give up hope . the internet is full of sites on it, just search.

First of all, DO NOT TAKE OUT YOUR PIERCING! I strongly suggest you call your piercer and tell him/her what's going on. What I did for my bump, is after I cleaned it with soap and water, I did a sea salt soak. A sea salt soak is getting hot (not too hot) water and putting a pinch of SEA salt (not table salt). I got a cotton ball and pressed it on my bump. It will burn a little but it's supposed to. I did this for about 15 minutes. After, I got Tea Tree Oil and using a Q Tip I put a small amount on the bump. That oil is harsh on skin, so do not use it daily only 2 times a week. Then, I put Vaseline on it. I covered my bump with Vaseline and the Vaseline naturally popped the bump. DO NOT pop the bump on your own. When the bump is popped, stop the soaks and everything else and just clean it regularly with soap and water. Avoid: twisting it, touching it with dirty hands, yanking it accidentally, make up, pinching/ touching the bump. Good luck! <3
