Is my nose piercing infected?

Asked by anag 4 months ago, 2 answers.

so I got my nose pierced on may29th and everything was fine until about a week or 2 ago..so around my nose I have a little bump that's red and I thought maybe it was like a pimple but it hasn't gone away...When I clean it I push up the stud,use a Qtip...

and rub soap around it,then I rinse it and push it back down..does my way of cleaning have to do w/the bump? and how should I get rid of it??

I have the same problem. And I got mine repierced the same day. I have that little bump. It used to white, but now it turned into this red'ish/my skin color bump. What I do is take boiling hot water (just a little bit like 1/2 cup) and put some sea salt in that, mix it around with a spoon, take a qtip and hold my nose down so my piercin goes up and I dab the piercin hole and the bump with it. It feels really hott but it's inna good way. The bump seemed to be going down, then it went away. Then like two days later it came back. I think you might have to sea-salt soak it like everyday idunno.
