I got my nose pierced on the 4th of November (2006) with a CBR. For the first little while it was doing fine, just healing normally, and about 2 weeks after I started to notice this weird gooey red thing was coming out of it (sorry I couldnt think of any other way to describe it:P). I realized that I was probably just cleaning it too much (sea salt soak twice a day, washed it with spectro jel, and put this spray stuff that my piercer gave me on it). So about a week later, the weird gooey red thing turned into the bump.. So I decided to just leave my piercing alone.

I left it alone for about 2 months and STILL nothing was happening...the bump just stayed there..sometimes getting bigger and sometimes getting smaller..but it never completely left.

It's been almost 4 months now and the damn thing is STILL there :( I don't understand what I'm doing. Im washing my face as if the piercing is not there at all (like i read in many other forums). My piercer suggested I put hydrocortizone cream on it..and I tried that, but it didn't make a difference at all..

I'm really scared that this might be a keloid or whatever its called?:S I'm losing hope and don't know what else to do! I'll take any suggestions I can get at this point!

Oh, and there seems to be a small bump on the inside of my nostral too..but its hard to tell.

Help!
