Talk to a reputable piercer about gauge. Some people have smaller sweet spots than others and it can really come down to your anatomy. 12g isn't too big assuming your anatomy allows for it.

Initial swelling varies from person to person. Some people notice the tip of their nose being swollen. I usually swell easily and didn't notice any swelling with mine.

Colds with septum piercings kind of suck if your nose is all messed up. My septum would irritate me if I was sick so I would take it out as my septum piercing can stay open for awhile without closing. The cold can definitely make it a bit sensitive, I'd always flip mine when it was really cold outside.

Al piercings should be cleaned by doing sea salt soaks twice a day for 5-10 minutes each soak.

And just so ya know, it's "taurus" ;)
