Should i take bactroban (mupirocin) to help my infected septum piercing?

See your doctor: If you had a nasal septum piercing and it has become infected then you need to see your doctor. While bactroban may help, a septal infection can become a bad thing very quickly. And, needless to say, i would really think twice about ever going back to the same person for any body piercings.

Septal piercing: Pain, purulent dischage, redness at site are indications of infection. Septal piercing is a bad idea. Have your nose evaluated by a board certified otolaryngologist,
