there is a little bubble next to my nose ring, my friend said its a key something..? any suggestions on how to get rid of it?
a nose piercing? Come on. Why would anyone want to put a hole anywhere in the body. (With the exception of ear piercings on girls). Go see a doctor.
You should go see a doctor or something :/ If you mess about with it yourself, it could get a lot worse... hope it's better soon :)
you should of purchased the cleaning disinfectant to wipe on it, but use peroxide and if that doesn't work u might have to take it out and let it heal and get it re-pierce. wash it everyday and use peroxide
i have no clue what that is, but i recently got my lip pierced and kept taking it out and back in the first week i had it so it got really infected. my older sister told me to get saline solution (contact solution) and use a q-tip with that and clean it and now its not infected. i had like a giant white bubble thing on the inside of my lip and now its gone. hope that helps.
*oh and dont use any peroxide. it makes it worse if anything.*
Buy rubbing alcohol or sea salt and mix the salt with warm water and rub on with a Q-Tip.
Either of them work.
If it's possible, take the nose ring out and THEN treat the infection.
If you can't take the piercing out, then just work around it.
I use rubbing alcohol and my sister uses seasalt + warm water.
Either can work.
A keloid.
They are common in nose piercings.
Use H2Ocean OR buy some natural sea salt from the store, make sure you check the ingredients and make sure it is pure sea salt.
Get 1 cup of warm water and 1/4 teaspoon of the sea salt and stir it around till it dissolves.
You can use a cotton ball and soak it on there or put your nose in a bowl and blow bubbles in the water.
Also don't touch it a lot, you can get keloids from it being irritated or rubbing against the skin or whatever so don't try to pop it because if it is a keloid it won't pop and it isn't infected it will just get worse.
Get rid of the piercing. They unattractive and can easily get infected, I don't see why anyone would want one.
1
Wash your hands thoroughly with warm water and antibacterial soap, scrub under your nails to remove any dirt and dry on a clean towel.
2
Remove your nose stud - place it in a clean cup and soak it in a natural antiseptic, sea salt and hot (not boiling) water. Leave in the mixture and clean off anything stuck to it.
3
Wipe your nose, inside and out with natural antiseptic, sea salt and warm water with a cotton bud and allow the mixture to go into the piercing hole as this will help kill any bacteria.
4
It is best to leave the piercing to close up, however if you do not want your piercing to close up, insert a clear retainer which you can buy online. Do not keep repiercing your nose if it closes up, you will reintroduce the bacteria and this could make your infection worse.
5
Repeat these steps everyday until the infection clears. Buy a good quality piercing (see tips!) or leave it closed up and get it pierced later on.
* Using a natural antiseptic is best - witch hazel and sea salt mixed with fresh boiled water that is left to cool slightly will work wonders.
* Use a titanium or surgical steel piercing, using cheap and nasty studs will ruin your nose and could help irritate the wound.
* Wash hands every time you touch your nose piercing and keep hands away from your face at any other time.
Warnings
* Wait until you finish school - teachers don't like piercings.
* TCP, tea tree oil and peroxide will kill bacteria, cleaning the wound, but they also kill healthy cells, which then increases the risk of infection.
* Use sea salt only, not table salt - it contains iodine which is an irritant.
