what is this and what should i do? ~3months old, surgical steel, size unknown
I got this piercing about 3 months ago. for the first month and a half i was extremely careful with it, i cleaned and sprayed it at least twice a day and i moved it very minimally. after about 6 weeks i tried out different jewelry, because it looked healed and wasn’t hurting. it got a bit irritated so i just put the regular ring back in.
i still occasionally take it out before i shower and wash the ring and the piercing.
for the past month the right side of it felt irritated, and i did move it and spray it a lot, i also put rubbing alcohol on it to get rid of the smell and i used hydrogen peroxide to clean the ring sometimes
whenever it was bothering me i kept messing pressing on my nose or washing it, and a little earlier today it really started stinging, and i found this big red bump there
i’m not sure if i should take it out or keep it in or go to a doctor. it doesn’t hurt as much as before but it’s still stinging a little and very uncomfortable
i’m aware that i’ve made a lot of mistakes with this piercing, but what should i do?
