Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to figure this out and it’s worrying me a little. I’m 21 and had my nipples pierced in December 2024. A few months ago I decided I wanted to take them out. They were the easiest piercings I’ve ever had and I liked them a lot but I just decided I wanted to take them out. They were fine for a while but a week or two ago i noticed that one of my nipples was bleeding after working out. I thought maybe it was from working out and friction but then I noticed this thick white puss coming from the piercing holes. I looked at the other one because I was freaked out and while the other side wasn’t bleeding, it had the same puss stuff coming from the piercing holes. I decided to leave it alone and now a few weeks later, it’s not bleeding or anything but that this white stuff is coming from both nipples piercing holes. I’ve also noticed that regular white puss (a lot thinner) is coming from the center of my nipple, not from the piercing site.
I’m really freaked out. If it was just the thick puss coming from the piercing holes I wouldn’t be as worried, but regular white puss and my nipple bleeding a couple weeks ago has me really freaked out. It doesn’t hurt, and it isn’t red. Just looks like my normal nipple with a little bit of scarring on one side from the piercing.
Can anyone help me? I don’t want to keep worrying about it.
