I think my nipple ring is infected.I got em done in july & the healing process went well.however,i bumped it a good shot at work last week,& it got sore,& now looks like there's a zit on the side of the hole.also,i was able to squeeze a lil bit of puss out of it when i took a shower this evening.how can i remedy this?I'll be pissed if i gotta take it out
its definitely not an infection. the red bump is probably a hypertrophic scar. which is NOT a keloid. as long as the puss is clear or white, its probably just blood lymph, which isnt always a bad thing. the bump at work probably just irritated it. just do what you did before to heal it. for a lot of people, a sea soak twice a day really helps. dont sweat it bro. just stop squeezing it http://encyc.bmezine.com/?salt_soaks http://encyc.bmezine.com/?Hypertrophic_Scarring
