Bump on nose piercing?
So I got my nose pierced almost 7 weeks ago. I keep getting this bump on my nose under the piercing. I pop it and the pis comes out and it bleeds a bit but then it goes away about a week later. Then it comes back! This has happened maybe 3 times now. After I pop it I always clean it with saline and in the shower I let the water run over it for a few minutes. I try not to mess with it as much as possible. I pop it because when I don't it hurts. What is this and why does it keep coming back? Tips? Thoughts?

Stop popping it, and go to a reputable professional piercer. It could be a bunch of things, like low quality jewelry. Or the wrong style of jewelry, like a CBR (nose piercings heal better with stud jewelry). A recurring bump is usually a symptom of some kind of ongoing irritation. You need to figure out what that irritation is.

This happened to me when I got mine pierced. Your body is rejecting the piercing and trying to heal the hole and push out the jewelry, hence the puss and bump forming. Go to the piercer you got it from and get their advice.
