Nose ring problem...help!?!


Question: im 14 and i got my nose peirced in the beggening of february, and everything is fine, exept every time i take my nose ring out and put it back in my nose gets really red around it for the rest of the day...but it dosent hurt at all and i cant feel stinging or anything.
i use the surgical steel nose studs...and i use the bone kind of stud with a tiny ball like thing on the end that helps keeping it from falling off easily.
also a few weeks ago i got a pimple right over the top of my nose stud, and i was afraid to put acne med. on it, so i let it go away itself,...but then it turned purple, then the next day it was bloody red, i tried to pop it but it was like pure blood inside a clear cover.
it finally dried up and fell off as a scab, but yesterday when i took my nose stud out after a shower i saw the thingy pimple was really small, but still on my nose!!!

do you know what that bloody thing was?
and why does my nose turn so red when i take the stud out?

Hey, I added you to my profile. Have something to tell ya about. First, I had a nose ring, the reason for my nose turning red in that area is because I'm very sensitive to it. Yet, I also had the problem of it coming out in my sleep. I would somehow rub my nose or pull the covers up and rip it out, YOW. It would set me up out of a dead sleep. It sounds that your nose is just real sensitive. As for the pimple, your 14. Its gonna happen. I'm 35 and unfortunately, I still get them once in a while. I thought with age, they go away. But thats not the case.
Then, I saw a reply about how your mom lost weight. If you want to lose weight, that isn't the way. I can guarantee your mom will gain it back and then some with losing it that way. It is a quick fix and obviously works, but if you want to lose a little weight, it comes with training your brain. Eat smaller portions. Especially when you put lunch and supper on your plate. We all are raised to "clean" our plates. Try this. Its successful. When you go to eat. Put half the amount on your plate. Then take a bite, take a drink. My mom and Aunt are doing this. And are having fabulous results. Sodas even when diet, are not good. The sugar thats in it adds the fat and is harder to burn. So if you are a soda drinker, give it up and drink plenty of water. Also, if you are hungry before bed. Drink a glass of water. You aren't suppose to eat 2 hours before bed. Also. I saw that you said you are 5'4" and 140 pounds. That is average weight for your height. I may be off about a pound, but the height and weight chart shows this. Maybe you said 5'3". I can't remember. But, Just eat this way and train your brain like that and you should burn the fat faster and have better results as well as not worrying about the weight coming back. Good luck.

It sounds like you popped a blood blister. It fills up again. Pop it with a pin and drain it. (a clean pin!)

You can use some antibiotic cream to calm a pimple or to sooth the ring opening.

If you leave the ring out for a few days, it can feel tender when you put it back in.

It could also be that your skin is just very sensitive and tender and doesn't like the intrusion of a foreign object and tries to reject it.

Use the anti-biotic cream, wear the ring every day, and it will toughen up.
