No, wait at least 2 months to change to an alternative stud and 4 months to change to a ring. Rings are not very good for healing, so that's why you have to wait longer. It'll be better in the long run if you allow it to heal fully with a stud, trust me. :P

You should always allow up to 14 days for healing, although nose piercings can be tricky, because it's also cartilage. If you want a hoop this early on, I would go back to the shop you had it pierced at, and get a professional to change it. If that's not an option, give it a few more weeks to heal.

If you can take out your piercing without it hurting/swelling I would say its healed enough to change it out.
