Septum is pierced but pressing down on my nose hurts. Been a few months since the piercing what can I do to make pain go away?

Nasal Septal Piercings can be fraught w/ problems.

Significant deformity may result from complications like necrosis of nasal wall or perichondritis. If stud grows into skin, it may need to be cut out. Nasal jewelry could be aspirated into lungs or swallowed. A number of types of bacterial infections are possible (red, swollen, warm, tender, painful w malodorous drainage). Have you tried Tylenol (acetaminophen)? Would you like to video or text chat with me?

Remove the piercing and have your nose evaluated by a board certified otolaryngologist, Would you like to video or text chat with me?
