A member asked:

My nose is really bad infected. i think i'm allegric but i'm not sure. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible: It is very unusual for these to get infected but tue signs are increasing redness, swelling, drainage, tenderness, warmth. A sensitivity or allergy to metals, particularly nickel, can look like an infection and may respond to a change to titanium or a purer gold.
