Do I have a permanent scar on my nose??
I got this piercing done in November of last year, and it was healing beautifully until I got a bad cold in February and it just went downhill from there. It developed an irritation bump which wouldn’t go away and just kept getting worse and worse. I had a tiny little stud with a flat back that I changed out to another flatback piercing with just a little flat metal piece of the top. My piercing itself is healed, but the bump around it has hardened and won’t go away and I’m scared I’m just stuck with this on my face. I also have seen some things about steroid shots to get rid of it, but I can’t afford to go to the dermatologist right now. It doesn’t really look big in the picture, but it kind of stands out on my face and my nose jewelry almost makes it stand out more when I wear it
