r/NosePiercing

Does no one take care or clean their piercings? I feel like ever since I've joined this subreddit all I see are posts about people with piercing gore. Question regarding my piercing in post also lol

First off, I've had my nose pierced now for nearly a month with a stud in my nostril. I'm cleaning it twice a day everyday, I think I may have the beginnings of a piercing bump but it's not all that obvious. Do piercing bumps heal naturally once you continue cleaning the piercing or are they more serious?

As for the title of my post, I feel like all of this subreddit is just posts about people getting piercing bumps or things going wrong with their piercings. Is it just 9/10 times piercings go wrong or are people just not taking care of them? it's strange to see the majority of posts here are just "Help!!" or should I take it out etc.

Nose piercingthis question for a first timer!!!

I really like this super tiny dot type studs and also the very thing rings. The only thing im hesitant about getting a piercing is the mark that it will on my nose. Will there be a significant scar ? Will i be able to get rid of it? Also what are the pros and cons of getting a very small tiny stud/ thin ring. Also can you please mention the diameters and sizes of the rings and studs in these images?

BTW THESE PICS ARE FROM PINTEREST!!

Septum piercing bump

Hey everyone! i got my septum pierced like 3 weeks ago, it does not hurt now (well sometimes when i accidentally hit my nose it kinda does) but when cleaning i dont feel any pain! the thing is that like a week ago i got this weird bump but just on one side, the other side looks pretty flat and theres no inflamation, i dont want to press the bump to check if it hurts or something comes out, i just clean it with saline water and then leave it alone. The thing is that im worried that it wont go away, it might grow or if its not on the sweet spot. I hope i get an answer! thanks yall 🙏

Uneven nostril piercings

I recently got my right nostril (left in pictures due to camera flipping) pierced, but I can’t help but feel it’s so uneven from my left. I know my nose isn’t perfectly symmetrical but I was wondering if it was noticeable enough to warrant taking it out? It really irks me but I don’t know if I’m just being a perfectionist.

Age of piercing: 1 day
Jewellery: labret bar internally threaded
Downsized: no
Aftercare: leave it alone
No accidental knocks/ bumps

Rhino Piercing

Rhino piercing done yesterday. Hurt a lot less than expected. On a scale of 1 to 10 it is a 6-7, Industrial being 8-9. I have not yet seen any rhino's irl, I hope to be able to motivate some of my friends to get them.

Double nostril piercing crooked?

I got my double nostril piercing today by a reputable piercer and this was the final outcome. I know double nostrils can be a little tricky but I feel like it's off a bit and it's making me anxious. I literally waited 2 months to get them re pierced and now this 🤦

Gnarly piercing bump on nose

Bro what do I do 😭 I’m using salt wash twice a day, tried a no pull disc, it’s just not healing. I have the other side of my nose pierced and never had this problem.

Infected or irritation bump?

I got double nostrils about 2.5 months ago and had small piercing bumps on both. I posted them for advice a bit back and continued aftercare and got them downsized a bit and swapped to flat top studs.

This seemed to help the left side as it looks fine now but my right side still isn’t resolved. Sometimes it looks pretty fine but a couple times it has developed a little white looking bump in the day and the next morning looks like this.

I’m concerned it might be infected but not sure if this just looks like lymph fluid so if anyone has any opinion it would be appreciated.

Thanks
