hi was wondering if anyone could give me some help on my nose piercing. ive had it for nearly 8 weeks now so its on its way to fully healing!
ive recently got a lump that looks like a spot and i thought was a spot, just beside my piercing. it has oozed blood pus watery stuff, the lot (ewww). it seems to have a bubble in it but nothing happens when i prick it. it isnt coming from the hole itself just this lump but it hasnt gone down in the last week!
was wondering what it was! is it a spot or it is an infection?? should i take my piercing out???xxxxx
ps i clean it all the time with TCP!

Hiya,
I had my nose pierced years ago and the same thing happened to me! I remember being told not to take it out as it can heal with the infection inside and become a bigger problem! I left mine, as tempting as it is DON'T touch it, leave it in and bathe with salt water.
