Hi I ve just come back off holiday and my nipple peircing has got a little lumo underneith, it s more itchy but sometimes a little sour and there s slight white puss around the bar. I ve cleaned with salt water but still scabby and sore. What could this be?
Hi, from history it seems that there might be having some infection on piercing site causing this problem. Due to stretching of ring with clothes might have produced some irritation and infection. Clean the part and apply antibiotic cream. If infection increases, go for one antibiotic medicine course. Ok and take care.
