That's normal, could last a few days, could last a few weeks, could last until their completely healed (sometimes 6+months). Most women find it goes down within a week, for some it's a permanent feature of nipple piercings and by many it's considered a reason for piercing.

As far as i knew the constant stimulation was kind of the point of the nipple piercing.
If the rigidity hasnt changed or lessened in the next 24 hours, make an appointment with your doctor, or the piercing artist who did the work for you (or both) to make sure the piercing site isnt infected.
Continue with the cleaning regimen your piercing artist gave to you, and take a few deep breaths and chill out. While an infection could be causing the hardening of the tissue, its alot more likely that the new and constant overstimulation of the area is the cause of your tissue erection, and it should go away in time as you become used to the sensation.

It may take awhile for you body to adjust to the piercing, my nipples were hard for like a week and after that the slightest bit of stimulation would set them off. Thats kind of the point of nipple piercings though.

They are inflamed and reacting to a foreign body and the destruction of cells, you silly git!
Apply some ice
Follow the RICE principle - Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation! Have you thought about a breast binder or firm bra?
And don't EVER pierce your nipples again!

I don't know why I get a kick out of helping people who obviously have no sense at all.
Heat. Nipples relax with heat. Nipples tighten with cold.

having your nipples pierced is like constant stimulation in those nerve endings.i'm guessing until the piercing is healed,they will stay hard.just a guess.
