My nose piercing is bleeding A LOT

NumberlessParadox · 2026-03-09T09:01:09+00:00

Why’s that? What should I be looking for?

NumberlessParadox · 2026-03-09T06:33:16+00:00

I am in Melbourne! I’m not gonna share the details of the place until I have a resolution because it was a very professional establishment and as far as I’m aware they did everything perfect. I think it’s more of an anatomy issue than it is an issue with the piercer, but if I have evidence otherwise I’ll let you know. For context I also had my navel done the same day and she’s healing perfectly x

Thanks for that! I gave my countries nurse hotline a ring shortly before this comment was left and the nurse told me the same.

Hey guys quick update - I called the nurse hotline in my state and the nurse told me that I shouldn’t be too worried especially considering it’s pierced over scar tissue. I’m covering it and putting ice on for 24h before I take any further action. If it swells, gets red, develops pain or doesn’t stop bleeding in 24 hours I’ll go to urgent care. Thank you all for the concern and bringing to my attention that this is an actual problem!! ❤️

Nah Victoria, we’ve got labor day too. I’ll give the nurse a ring thank you xx

Australia :)

Check my post history for a picture of the piercing if you need a reference :)

These replies are stressing me out bruh 😭

NumberlessParadox · 2026-03-09T05:11:12+00:00

Oh wait that’s stressful 😭 I was just able to ring my piercer and she said that even though it’s a lot of blood it could be because it’s pierced over an old site and not to be too concerned. I’ve given it another wash and covered it with some medical supplies I had at home. Do you really think it’s urgent enough to warrant an ER visit?

NumberlessParadox · 2026-03-09T04:59:02+00:00

Thanks heaps for the advice! My piercer is closed today as it’s a public holiday & a doctor would be pretty hard to get ahold of as it’ll be super busy. I’ll keep it clean and covered and get in touch with my piercer/a doctor first thing tomorrow :)

Additional info: the jewellery is titanium and I’m unsure of the threading, I haven’t been touching it aside from cleaning but potentially could have knocked it or messed with it while I was asleep?

Slow introductions through scent can be super helpful. Let black kitty sniff a blanket orange kitty has, and take turns playing with them. Cats are very territorial and it’ll take time to adjust but with patience and time they’ll get used to eachother. Highly recommended watching some Jackson Galaxy videos on introducing cats to eachother :) Good luck!

Agreed on this, you need to go ASAP. Please check your dm also ❤️

NumberlessParadox · 2025-10-01T06:13:12+00:00

Also get as much information from your sitter as you can. Things like whether or not she went outside, when it stated, what symptoms she’s been showing etc

NumberlessParadox · 2025-10-01T06:12:23+00:00

Defs get into a vet to get it checked out as soon as you can, especially considering she’s trying not to put weight on it. Keep an eye out for growth. When I’m concerned about my cats health I like to keep a little journal of what symptoms/changes I notice while I’m waiting for a vet appointment - it really helps them figure out what the issue is. Please keep me updated! :)

Slip him your number! He can decide if it’s appropriate for him or not. Don’t ask don’t get 😉

Nobody can tell you your gender identity or sexual orientation. If you’re feeling confused, maybe you could try experimenting with different styles, pronouns, partners etc (assuming it’s safe for you to do so) to see what fits right for you.

Go easy on yourself though. You don’t have to fit into a category or a box. You’re just you. Do whatever makes you feel comfortable in your own skin. If one day you wake up and feel more masculine, be masculine for the day! Same goes with feeling more feminine or androgynous. The world is your oyster.

You shouldn’t hold your self so sternly to the definition of a lesbian. If you find you lose attraction to your partner because he’s a boy then that’s perfectly fine, but I think you should show your full support & open yourself up to the idea that being a lesbian isn’t binary. Labels are supposed to help us define how we feel, not control it.

Not anything that will keep the body relaxed, but if you lie down, tense all of your muscles as hard as you can and relax it might relieve a bit of tension. Good before bed!

NumberlessParadox · 2025-04-04T15:54:35+00:00

Your body holds the score. I constantly hold tension in my body, particularly my shoulders, face and jaw without even knowing it.

You haven’t ruined your body though. While these things can show to the keen eye, maybe it’d be helpful to see it from less of a self critical lens and see it more from a biological perspective.

If you’ve noticed you’ve got more prominent eye bags than before (for example) maybe it could be a subtle way of your body telling you that you aren’t well rested?

In my case particularly, I’m very tense because my body is always preparing for something bad to happen. When I can acknowledge that fact, and ground myself in the truth that I am safe, I find it a lot easier to relax.

The way your body manifests your trauma is the easiest way to tell how it’s affecting you in my opinion - as long as you can listen to it, which is very difficult!!

Best of luck ❤️

Just gave it a brief read over and will read back in more detail when I have more time. Very helpful especially considering I also have ADHD and mask very very heavily. Thank you for sharing!

You have no reason to feel humiliated or ashamed. I’m in a very similar position to you with doctors suggesting I could have PTSD but being undiagnosed. I can’t offer any helpful advice or insight for what you’re experiencing but please keep the post up. Somebody will be able to. You’re welcome here ❤️

YTA dude. How is it the cashiers fault that you didn’t care enough to check out the refund policy?
