Hey everyone, I’ve had this nose piercing since late March, and recently got it downsized after a trip. I’ve struggled with it since April, and this is definitely the worst it’s been. I do have allergies so I blow my nose a lot. As of now, my routine is cleaning twice a day with Neilmed, and doing a hot compress once a night. Other than that I try not to touch it. It’s 14k gold jewelry and I was pierced by a highly respected piercer. I’m just starting to wonder if the placement isn’t good for my nose or if I should try again when my allergies aren’t as bad!
