It is probably a cracked vein due to the dry air but you can get a satisfactory answer from an ENT doctor since he will suggest you to have the necessary blood tests done in order to find out what is wrong. I think it is the most satisfactory solution for your worries about your health.\n\nCheck out ;\nhttp://www.ctds.info/nose_bleeds.html\n\nhttp://menshealth.about.com/od/conditions/a/nose_bleeds.htm

It would seem that you have a small pilondial cyst and as long as it is open, you should have no trouble. However if it begins to close or becomes infected, a doctor may be needed to open it and pack the wound with a special type of gauze. Many people that have this condition, strangely have another symptom that seems unrelated....they have eyebrows that meet over their nose...so check the mirror. Of course, there can be other reasons, but that's what it seems to be. These sometimes granulate in from the inside, but some need the interior tissue removed before the wound will totally heal and close.

Yes, it happened to me. I stepped on glass and two years later it came out. Another year later a piece festered and lymph node in my groin, and had to be lanced.

i did all my piercings myself...2 labrets and my tongue. and my  daughter's lip piercings...i'm not suggesting ppl do this themselves!! i did a lot of research on where to pierce according to nerve areas, etc....none of ours got infected. piercings are tender as they heal. small bumps are a sign of scar tissue forming, which is building a "base" to keep the barbell from pushing it's way out of the body (rejection of the foreign body) it sounds like you could be slightly allergic to the metal...sterling silver rarely rejects because it has natural anti-biotic properties. titanium is good too. my advice is to wash it with antibacterial soap 2-3 times a day. and use a triple antibiotic ointment. you can even use the solution they give you for ear piercings. you have to move the barbell up and down, and twist it while washing it, to make sure the entire area is getting cleansed. it's not uncommon to have a "crust" form around it...soft tissue piercings are going to be tender, and take up to a year to fully develop scar tissue and heal. try to keep clothing from pressing or rubbing against it, and allow air to get to it so that it stays as dry as possible. if the piercing site swells to double it's size, gets very red and hot, is draining a lot of pus, and you run a fever, you have an infection and need to go to the doctor for oral antibiotics. good luck with this.

Try Peroxide every now and then besides of straight alcohol.  If that doesn't work take a Q-tip and rub baby oil around it being careful not to get in the piercing itself.

no offense to some of the people who have answered you, but never ever ever put peroxide on a piercing! Just keep rising with an anteseptic like scope. As for the bump don't worry about it. The skin around a new peircing dies. It is nothing to worry about; just the body's way of accomadating something that doesn't belong. It will go away on it's own. If you are having infected looking puss, rinse with listerine or a hospital grade mouthwash everytime you put anything in your mouth. DO NOT take out the peircing if it is infected. The skin can cover the infection and trap it. The result could be very bad, up to a systemic infection that could make you very sick or even kill you! If you are that worried go see a doc and get an antibiotic. Make sure you are taking a multivitamin and xtra zinc, b vitamins, and C. these all help in healing.

No, it doesn't hurt at all actually. I didn't even feel a sting like someone else mentioned...All I felt was pressure. I've had my nostril pierced for a lil' over 2 yrs. now....\n\nI was extremely nervous before I went because I had heard stories about how it makes your eyes water it hurts so bad, & how much it can bleed...Needless to say neither of those happened to me...It bled just a tiny bit just around the piercing itself, but the piercer cleaned it up & I was good to go...\n\nClean it with Dial antibaterial soap, and/or sea salt soaks, & you'll be fine...It honestly hurts worse to get your ears pierced than your nostril...Good luck!!

My daughters nose would bleed like that too and the doctor said it was sinus problems and allergies. She used to get these huge clots too that would scare me to my wits end! She still gets them occasionally but it's not as frequent as before.

i changed mine right after swelling went down but it hurt worse than the actual piercing did...changed it again after two months and it was fine, no pain...

It may be scar tissue that has formed there. I would demand that the doctor due an ultrasound or whatever it took to figure this out.You are your best advocate.

Deviated septum\n\nA deviated septum is a common physical disorder of the nose, most frequently caused by impact trauma, such as by a blow to the face. It can also be a congenital disorder, though it is not hereditary.\n\nThe nasal septum is the membranous ridge of cartilage in the nose that separates the nasal cavity into the two nostrils. Normally, the septum lies centrally, and thus the nasal passages are symmetrical. A deviated septum is an abnormal condition in which the top of the cartilaginous ridge leans to the left or the right, causing obstruction of the affected nasal passage. The condition can result in poor drainage of the sinuses, leading to frequent infections or the growth of nasal polyps. Patients can also complain of difficulty breathing easily, or of sleeping disorders such as snoring or apnoea.\n\nIt is common for nasal septums to depart from the exact centerline; the septum is only considered deviated if the shift is substantial or is adversely affecting the patient. Many people with a deviation are unaware they have it until some discomfort is produced. But by itself a deviated septum can go for years without being detected and thus be without any real need for correction.\n\nIn most cases a deviated septum can be corrected with a minor surgical procedure known as a septoplasty, which enters through the nostrils and cuts away the obtruding matter. The surgery is performed quickly but the patient may take several days to recover.\n\n Fact Sheet: Deviated Septum\n \nThe shape of your nasal cavity could be the cause of chronic sinusitis. The nasal septum is the wall dividing the nasal cavity into halves; it is composed of a central supporting skeleton covered on each side by mucous membrane. The front portion of this natural partition is a firm but bendable structure made mostly of cartilage and is covered by skin that has a substantial supply of blood vessels. The ideal nasal septum is exactly midline, separating the left and right sides of the nose into passageways of equal size. \nEstimates are that 80 percent of all nasal septums are off-center, a condition that is generally not noticed. A "deviated septum" occurs when the septum is severely shifted away from the midline. The most common symptom from a badly deviated or crooked septum is difficulty breathing through the nose. The symptoms are usually worse on one side, and sometimes actually occur on the side opposite the bend. In some cases the crooked septum can interfere with the drainage of the sinuses, resulting in repeated sinus infections. \n\nSeptoplasty is the preferred surgical treatment to correct a deviated septum. This procedure is not generally performed on minors, because the cartilaginous septum grows until around age 18. Septal deviations commonly occur due to nasal trauma. \n\nA deviated septum may cause one or more of the following: \n\nBlockage of one or both nostrils \nNasal congestion, sometimes one-sided \nFrequent nosebleeds \nFrequent sinus infections \nAt times, facial pain, headaches, postnasal drip \nNoisy breathing during sleep (in infants and young children) \nIn some cases, a person with a mildly deviated septum has symptoms only when he or she also has a "cold" (an upper respiratory tract infection). In these individuals, the respiratory infection triggers nasal inflammation that temporarily amplifies any mild airflow problems related to the deviated septum. Once the "cold" resolves, and the nasal inflammation subsides, symptoms of a deviated septum often resolve, too. \n\n \nDiagnosis Of A Deviated Septum: Patients with chronic sinusitis often have nasal congestion, and many have nasal septal deviations. However, for those with this debilitating condition, there may be additional reasons for the nasal airway obstruction. The problem may result from a septal deviation, reactive edema (swelling) from the infected areas, allergic problems, mucosal hypertrophy (increase in size), other anatomic a

Nothing to worry about-its happened to me a few time.You probably did bruise/scratch yourself at work.Put some neosporin on it and unless it gets infected just forget about it.
