Heyy long time no speak.

Uhm i just got my nose pierced a couple of days ago.. and uhm when i got it i got it with a gun..

BUUUTTTT

the earring i guess was too small? it kept sinking and d sinking.. i didnt know what to do

so i took one of the studs (from the jewelry store) and put it in my nose but i didnt use the plastic backpiece i used the real backpiece (metal i think?)

but anyways it was quite normal for a day or to.

then today (just now) out of nowhere it starting bleeding so i took it out and cleaned it with alchohol (both my nose and the ring itself) and i just put it back in

the moral to my story is: is this side effect usual for after you get your first nose piercing ? Im really wondering

tennisstar88 agony auntI forgot to answer your question, some people say it's normal for it to bleed a little. Mine and the rest of my friends who had it done never bleed at all. If you bleed it's only a tiny bit.

tennisstar88 agony auntFirst off where did you get your nose pierced at? The only places that do it are tattoo/piercing parlors and you have to be 18, which you are not. I know they definitely don't use a gun, it was more like a long needle running through your nose then they thread the nose ring(stud) thru to comfortably fit your nose. The nose ring that you pick out doesn't have a back because it's curved to stay in, like a fish hook.

At some costume jewelry stores, like Claire's, they have ones with backs but I think they're a pain in the rear.

So you got it done by someone who had no idea what they were doing. I would go to Claire's, Hot Topic, Icing, Walmart jewelry section and buy specifically a nose ring..then take your stud with the backing off and stick that new ring in. See how your nose feels for the next 2 days. If it stops bleeding, no worries. Now, if it starts back up then you want to take your nose ring out and let it close up. Next time, get your piercings done by a professional.
