DEAR ALLEY: What do you suggest for a nose bump after a nostril piercing? I have heard aspirin, sea-salt, tea tree oil... Any suggestions?

ALLEY: Hi Katie!

But I’m not sure if I should take it out or let it be so the bump can go and I can change the jewelry. I have had the same jewelry since I pierced it.

ALLEY: Hi Keandra!

I'm missing a little bit of info from you here, but I'm gonna do my best to answer anyways!

Let's talk about that bump. You do not want to mess with your piercing at all until your hypertrophic scar has gone away. I do not recommend taking out your jewelry so that the piercing bump can go down - you'll probably just...
