Have you tried putting something like Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) on it? Its a disinfectant and you should be able to get it easily from a local drug store. It may slightly burn but when you put it on its actually pulling all the infection out; the infection coming out will bubble white. Another thing you could do is to at night put some saline water on a 4x4, a gauze pad, and place it on your nose for the night when you go to bed. The only other thing I would suggest is to just take the peircing out and let it heal.

The reason for this infection might be because your allergic to the metal of the peircing and its aggrevating your skin. Many times this can also happen because of taking the stud in and out before it is totally healed. Sometimes an infection can occur because of the stud is sinking into the nose cartilage. This cartilage doesn't heal like normal flesh.

If you try this and it doesn't clear up in a few weeks the best thing you can really do is either go to a doctor or take it out. Hope this helps!
