How do I get rid of the bump on my nose piercing?
First let me say that it is NOT infected!!!!! I have been taking care of it very well and the hole itself is healing nicely. But like 2 weeks after I got my nose peirced a bump started to appear right inside of one side of the hole. It's hard to explain where the bump is but if youve ever had it you know what I'm talkin about. First I thought it was a pimple but when it didn't go away I inspected it alot closer and realized it was a blood blister! Gross right?! So I started doin alot of research about it to try and find out whats causing it and how to get rid of it and i found out that a lot of people get that horrible bump but alot of people had dif reasons for why it appears and how to get rid of it. Some people said that it means your nose is infected (NOT true in my case!) Some people said it's just your body rejecting the peircing and that it will go away later. Some people said it means your allergic to whatever metal you have in the hole which is supposed to be impossible in my case too cause I have a surgical steel stud. So idk what my bump is from or how to get rid of it but I'm willing to do almost anything to keep my nose peircing so please tell me your opinion of what the problem is and most importantly how to get rid of my nasty blood blister bump. Thanks Additional Details i didnt "shove" a needle through it but i did pop it with a steralized safety pin but the blood blister just came back a couple days later. so do you guys think im allergic to sergical steel somehow? if so what do i need to change it to?

Can I use Cortizone 10 to treat a nose piercing bump?
I would not suggest using that on a piercing at all. Follow proper aftercare instructions and make sure to soak it well in the shower. Piercing Aftercare InstructionsAlso address the reason why the bump is there. Could be trauma like snagging, jewelry metal and or fit….etc.
How long to use tea tree oil on nose piercing bump?
Okay, so this is the fifth time i've had my nose pierced and everytime i develop the infamous "bump" so everytime i take the piercing out - but i just love the piercing so much that i decided to try the tea-tree oil remedy that so many people have raved about and it worked! I've been doing the treatment for four days now and the bump is finally gone!! However, I can still see a little opening in the skin where the bump generated from and i'm nervous that the bump will only come back once i stop doing the tea-tree oil treatments - SO MY QUESTION IS: how long should i keep applying tea-tree oil to the area to guarantee that the bump won't return?? Will the opening (it almost looks like an open sore but it's very tiny) ever fully go away? is there anything else i can do to help the healing process along? I've had the peircing for almost 2 months now and the bump developed about a month after i got the piercing. The jewelry I'm wearing is specially designed hypo-allergenic silicone, it was really expensive so i know its not the ring (particularly because the bump happens to me everytime i get my nose pierced, regardless of the jewelry i have in) thanks for your help!
Nose Piercing Bump! Need To Get Rid Of!?
I've had a nose piercing for about a month and 2 -3 weeks. I changed my piercing on the 2nd day I got it done (I know super stupid but my piercer said I could do it. Turns out I couldn't) Ugh! Anyway, it would get infected and it would heal. But now, it just has this bump its always there when it's infected! And this time it wont really go away. I used tea tree oil (doesnt look like its working), Neosporin (doesn't seem like its working either), Hydrogen Peroxide (nothing happens!), Sea Salt (doesn't seem like it's doing much either!), uhmmmm bactine also (it somewhat works). So i don't know what to do! I need to get rid of it! Here's another thing: I don't want my piercing anymore. Should i just take it out? Even though it's infected? Will the bu,p still be there?? Cause i need to heal in like 2 weeks!? And i don't want it anymore so help?
Why do some people get a bump after a nose piercing? How can it be treated?
The bump is known in the industry as a hypotrophic scar or granulation. Sometimes it is called a keloid or piercing pimple/blood blister. (It seems it has a lot of names)It is due mostly to 4 main factors:Jewellery material or shape. If the jewellery you are wearing is cheap or isn't good for your skin then a bump will happen. Usually this can happen if your stud is too short or long as well. And it is BOUND to happen if you are wearing rings during the healing time of the piercing (when it's still new, first 6 months)Aftercare. If you aren't using just warm salty water according to Association of Professional Piercers then you will likely see this bump. Yes this means you mister/miss alcohol spray over there! I see you don't try and hide!Contact. If you are touching or knocking your piercing a lot then this bump will appear. Hands off please. And if you knock it. CLEAN IT!Health. If you are ill, recovering from illness or just have a poor immune system then this can be a result. Improvements to your fitness or health will also improve your piercing quality. So smokers and drinkers will see more of this bump than fit people, generally speaking.Check out that link under number 2 if you wish to see some methods of helping your piercing heal on top of the ones I've mentioned
Nose (piercing) bump inside my nostril?
I had my nose pierced about 6 months ago and I have had a bump on the inside of my nostril at the base of the piercing for a while now. It doesn't hurt and doesn't look infected or inflamed... how do I treat it myself* if it is "the bump"? What is the likelihood it is some kind of keloid scar? *If my attempt to treat it at home doesn't work, I will go to a doctor.
Is it okay to take out a nose piercing that has an irritation bump?
It depends on what caused the bump. There are a number of different types of bumps including excess scarring, excess granulation tissue, and what I call a “localized piercing pimple.” If it is the first one, there’s a remedy that is effective, but it is a silicone disc that gets applied to the jewelry. So, if the jewelry is taken out, this resolution cannot be used.If it is a localized piercing pimple, and there’s drainage, removing the jewelry can block access for the pathway of matter to the surface, and this can even result in an abscess, which is worse.However, it is critical that if jewelry be left in, that it is of an appropriate size, style, material, and quality. (No earrings! No silver! and so on….)Finally, if the bump is excess granulation tissue, then removing the jewelry will usually resolve that issue.Each type is described in detail in The Piercing Bible, with suggestions on what to do. But if you cannot figure out which type of bump you have, I offer professional online consultations for piercing problems.
Nose piercing scab?
I got my nose pierced (a ring) about 2 and a half weeks ago and now I've got one of those granulomas formed around the wound, and it's created a scab. What I've done is soaked a bit of kitchen roll in warm salt water and used it as a compress on the scab, but then it just seems to take the scab off and bleed. I clean it as usual with cotton buds as well soaked in salt water. I'm just wondering, will the scab just go on it's own if I stop taking it off and making it bleed? and should I start using sea salt instead of table salt in my solution? thanks, advice would be greatly appreciated!
