Simple answer go back and talk to the one who did the piercing, they are accountable for the job they do and they should render assistance to you when you have issues with the piercing. That's why they charge you so much, they are suppose to help you when you need help. Go talk to them.
You should see a doctor, as it might be an infection.
Yes it means that the piercing is not healed correctly and there is a buildup of matter inside the piercing. See your doctor.
Use a q-tip and just dab the bump with the oil. Use it after you clean your piercing. I usually apply it twice a day but if that's too harsh for your piercing, only use it once a day. You don't want it to go inside the piercing, just on the bump. The oil will dry out the bump and it'll start flaking off in layers. If the tea tree oil doesn't affect it, it could be the jewelry. Especially if its a ring and gets hit often.
A bump around your dimple piercing is the body guarding the piercing, the surrounding tissue toughens as the piercing heals. This will ease off as the piercing heals, ensure you are rinsing the piercing daily under running water (best done in the shower after shampoo and conditioner as these tend to irritate the piercing). Should you have serious concerns contact your body piercer and let him/her have a look at it.
If its an old piercing its most likely scar tissue, if its a new piercing its most likely getting infected and there is pus in the bump.
This is normal. It's making a tunnel for the earring to go in. The bumps will get smaller as the hole heals. After a few years, you'll have to search for the bump. It will be very tiny.
Your piercing is infected and you should remove it. You should go to a doctor to get a prescription so the infection goes away and so you do not get very sick.
See your piercer, who can help you out.
No Having any form of lump or bump next to a closed piercing indicates there is some form of issue with the piercing. This also depends on how long the jewellery has been out of the piercing and how long you had the piercing before removing the jewellery. If you develop any pain or discomfort seek the assistance of your doctor.
If you've just recently gotten your tongue pierced and there is a white bump either on the top or bottom of your tongue, that is completely normal, This is a scab, but because it's on the inside of your mouth, it has absorbed moisture and has turned white. It will eventually go away, It should leave within 3 weeks. If it doesn't consult your piercer. ( I am a piercer myself therefor I know what I am talking about and I have ran into this situation a few times before) I hope it helped!
Its most likely hypertrophic scarring. After your regular cleaning, dab a little bit of tea tree oil on the bump. Dont put it inside the piercing. The tea tree oil will dry up the bump and it'll peel off in layers. Apply the TTO once a day every day, cut back if its too drying. If it doesnt help, you may just be hitting the piercing too much. things like glasses irritate the area and cause the hypertrophic scarring.
Its probably Hypertrophic scarring. which is very common wit any cartilage piercing. Go to walmart o a drugstore and get a bottle of Tea Tree Oil. It's like $5 for at least a years supply. Just use a q-tip and dab a bit on the bump every day after you clean your piercing in the morning. The oil will dry up the bump and it'll flake off until its gone. Don't overload on the oil because it'll dry the piercing out. Try your best to get it on the bump and not on or in the piercing.
