I had a traditional nose piercing ten years ago, and haven't worn any jewellery there for over 8 years and the hole is still open. I thought these things closed over time?

When the nose is pierced a piece of the flesh and cartilage is removed so it won't heal up - sorry.
You should have been told this when it was done.

I had my nose pierced ofr 3 months then school excluded me and I needed a retainer and it closed within 5 mins so it will be a while.

Same as, i haven't worn a nose ring for yonks but the hole hasn't closed up. I think, like me, you'll always have, what looks like a massive open pore on your nose!!

For your nose to close up dont touch it and stuff but also your nose is a very hard thing to close up after a hole has been in it for a while so take my advice and dont touch!!!!!

Because the piercing was through your cartilage. There isn't cartilage where the ears get pierced on the "traditional" bottom part. Sorry dude.

Not always. It depends on how long you wore a nose ring before you took it out for good.

No wonder you want it to close up. I can't even look at a girl with a ring in her hooter. It real turns me off

Glad I never did get round to having mine done when I was younger (I wanted to but just never got round to it!) .....but I don't think I'd be wearing a ring in it now - so I'm lucky, I have been spared the "third nostril"!
