Nose Piercing Help!

I got my nose pierced a month ago and I got the dreaded bump but on the inside of my nostril. I've been trying to make it go away for a few week now but it won't. Now a bump is starting to develop on the outside of my nostril and when I push the ring out a little to clean around the outside now there's this little red bubble that's popping out too. Is it infected? What should I do?

My sisters went away on it's own. Though it took awhile to do do.

I agree with Nala, I had one when I got my nose pierced for the first time and I took the easy way out and took my piercing out, let that bubble go away and got it repierced but it'll go away on it's own, continue cleaning like regular, don't play with your piercing, most of the times this is the reason for a bubble popping up.

Yeah I had that happen to me aswell, only on the outside though, I have had mine done for nearly 2 years and it stopped being prone to infections at about 6 months, try not to touch it, if you do make sure you have washed your hands otherwise that could be the reason the bump is appearing, I used eucalyptus oil on it, just a tiny amount and it got rid of the bump pretty quickly, :)

Try to use wound wash saline or go to your tattoo or piercing shop and ask if the have some H2 ocean or sea salt. Hopefully any of these products should help.
