Nose Piercing Problem??
I had a friend pierce my nose for me and I have a few problems. First, the nose stud we had had a little ball on the end, and we couldn't get it in the hole; it was too big. We filed it down so it was straight and it went in, but for some reason, it doesn't feel like it is all the way in. Every time I even slightly flare my nose, it starts working its way out. Any suggestions?
Also, my eyes never watered when it was pierced. I'm pretty sure it is supposed to....

Get one of the "bend to fits" or "screw" studs. The bend one is straight but once it's in you bend the end. And the srew one actually twists into your nose, those ones don't come out unless you want them to! And my eyes watered but I know people who didn't.

I think it wouldve been better if you got your nose professionally pierced, you wouldnt have such problems. I have a friend who has pierced her nose herself about 6 times now. Shes done it 6 times because everytime something goes wrong and she has to take it out and let it heal.
Anyhow, the nose studs with the ball at the end are really short and thats why its coming out, i would suggest you get a nose stud that has a twisted or bent end like this:

the ones in the second picture you can find at claire's..these nose studs offer your nose something to grab onto so it doesnt fall out. The ball is there at the end of the nose stud you had for the same reason but those can be hard to get through the piercing just like it was for you. I have the same problem. Since you filed the ball off, there is nothing to stop the nose stud from coming out of your nose. Just get a new nose stud and you should be fine :)
its completely okay if your eyes didnt water, it doesnt HAVE to happen. it happens to some people while it doesnt to others.

Try getting hold of a nose screw (I know it sounds like a torture device but its just a stud with a curved end) and putting that in instead, they're much better for healing piercings as they cant slip out.
What you pierced it with was a nose bone, the ball on the end is designed to keep it in place
Until you can get ahold of a screw then just keep pushing it back in whenever it feels loose
