Most likely I’m being over dramatic but I also want to make sure this is normal. I know it’s different for everyone but it’s worth a shot to ask if this is “normal” or if anyone else has experienced this. When I first got it done it would slightly sting or feel like a dull soreness when I would flair my nostrils. It’s been about 3-4 weeks now and everything has been good until this week. This week it feels sore when I flair my nostrils but like I said it was fine the weeks before. I’m not sure if nose piercings kind of go in and out if soreness or what. Also I’m not sure if I’m maybe sleeping on it and irritating it. The inside looks a little swollen but the outside looks fine. The second day of having it I ended up ripping it out in my sleep, so from then on I’ve been wearing bandaids to bed to keep the jewelry from being ripped out.
