Best Answer

Septum piercings smell when healthy discharge from your piercing traps dead skin cells, bacteria, and other organic material. The smell is totally normal. Clean your piercing twice a day during healing and at least a few times a week after healing to prevent or get rid of sebum buildup and smell.

Yes it can and it is completely normal. The reason is the location of the piercing i.e. inside the nose. Nothing to worry about, only you can smell it.
