Talk to Skin, nails, Hair, Dermatology on Skin Infection After Nose Piercing
Asking for Self, Female, 28 years old, Rawalpindi
Asalam o alaikum. I've to ask about an infection after getting done my nose piercing. I got my nose pierced on 28th August, and then i developed a bump on piercing area. I've applied polyfax for 5 days but no betterment. Now my bump is swollen, and when i remove my stud to apply ointment, white pus comes from the area. I tried to remove the stud for 2 days, my piercing was closed but bump didn't vanish. I tried some home remedies like replacing the stud with corriander stick, tulsi stick and wooden stick. But nothing helped. What should i do? I'm attaching the picture of current condition of my nose. Please guide me. Thanks in advance.

w.s this is infected and you need to consult fr oral and local treatment and management of the wound.regards
Dear patient please stop treating your self, your wound not look good. I think you got allergic reaction with the pin and then infected and scaring. Please make appointment with your local dermatologist for proper treatment.
AOA. Kindly try the following course and let me know how it goes.
- Do not put the stud back in.
- Apply polyfax twice daily. Be sure to remove the previous one with clean water before applying the ointment again.
- Tab Azomax 250mg twice daily for 5 days.
- Tab Caflam 50mg twice daily for 1 week.
Thank you
No problem. If after 5 days, you see no improvement, then I would agree with my colleagues that you need to visit in person. Take care.
