I have my nose pierced, I've had it for years - since I was 16, so 9 years. It did hurt when it was done, but only for a minute, it wasn't too bad to be honest. I just buy the straight cheap nose studs and bend them in half at a right angle, then put that in my nose. I've had the same one for years now, it just always stays in there - put makeup on and clean around it. Though I have taken it out a few times for curious children lol, it doesn't hurt one bit ]]> Mon, 28 Jun 2010 13:15:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1079582&title=nose-piercing#1079582 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1079573&title=nose-piercing#1079573 Author: tictacjunkie

I didn't find my nose hurt for very long. The cuff? on my ear hurt more because I kept sleeping on it. The tongue I found more overwhelming than painful, having pain in your head & having to keep your tongue poking out. I had a vch done at the same time as my tongue & the tongue hurt more at the time but healed much quicker. I have two little tattoos, didn't hurt much, want more but haven't found a good artist yet.

I started to panic with the tongue when he got the clamp out to hold my tongue! But it wasn't as bad as I thought!

My mums reaction was sooooooo funny, my friend goes "We got our tongues pierced" My mum brakes on the motor way and goes "WHAT! OPEN YOUR MOUTH NICOLE!" Looks in and goes "OMG... You HAVE!" then drives... Stops again on the motor way and goes "It's not real is it...?" I go "No we're just kidding!" and she drives again then stops and goes "It is, isn't it?" and I go "Yes" and this went on until we got home... Luckily it was 10pm and no cars re her stopping!

I'm keen for a tattoo next... ]]> Mon, 21 Jun 2010 20:45:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1071518&title=nose-piercing#1071518 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1071496&title=nose-piercing#1071496 Author: minik8e

FYI: If you go for a piercing and the person asks you if you want it numbed with cream first - PLEASE turn around and walk out of the place straight away! Numbing causes the skin to contract and can leave you with a nasty scar/reactions/infections while your body is trying to heal.
Piercings only hurt for the amount of time it takes for them to push the blade thru (I had a LOT of them). Inserting the jewellery shouldnt hurt as the area around the incision is in shock from the cut.
Getting my ears pierced hurt more than the 3 bars in my tongue ;)]]> Mon, 21 Jun 2010 17:44:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1071177&title=nose-piercing#1071177 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1071114&title=nose-piercing#1071114 Author: lil_lease

I had my nose done with a gun. The only piercing that I've had that brought tears to my eyes (and I've had 12 all up. 7 still in use)

All I got was a normal stud earring. It was a pain in the butt because it didnt have a bend in it. The day after, my mum came in to wake me up, said "what, did you pierce you're nose or something?" and jabbed the plaster I had on it to protect it. Pushed the stud part way into my septum and it bled something horrible.

2 days after I had it pierced I went out and bought a little nose stud with a ball on the end. Less than a week after I had the piercing done I changed them over. Was much more secure after that. Only problem was the skin grew over the little ball bit and it was a real cow to change the stud 6 months later.

Now I have a bent bar. Much more secure.]]> Mon, 21 Jun 2010 16:49:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1071055&title=nose-piercing#1071055 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1071052&title=nose-piercing#1071052 Author: High9

First time I had my nose done I went to chemist (cos friend's mum said it'd be safer) & chemist used gun. Second time I went to tattoo studio who used a needle. Neither asked me for id & I was only 14 at the time. Needle healed much faster.

Makes me sad that people (not you guys - the people doing it) pierce with guns still!
I've been body piercing for about 5 years (stopped for kiddies) and I'd NEVER pierce anything with a gun. The blade (needle) is the way to go - it slices a path thru the flesh with no friction letting the jewellery sit properly and it helps with healing. The gun forces the earring thru the skin and stretches a hole, thats why it always hurts more when you get it done like that.

If you ended up with a butterfly on the inside of your nose, i'd do the place for negligence. its so bloody dangerous! ]]> Mon, 21 Jun 2010 06:48:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1070259&title=nose-piercing#1070259 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1070233&title=nose-piercing#1070233 Author: hcsmum

Ugh, guns for nose piercings scare me!!! I had mine done with a needle, much less pain than getting my ears done with a gun because the hole is larger than the stud, and the wound can close a little around it.

Mine developed a bump on the outside for a while, but it went away eventually without me doing anything. And now I can leave it out for a couple of days with no worries - I mostly lose my studs in bed!!]]> Sun, 20 Jun 2010 19:49:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1070045&title=nose-piercing#1070045 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069549&title=nose-piercing#1069549 Author: High9

I got mine done about 3yrs ago and I also had a lump, for aaaages. It was really annyoing and made it hard to clean and change the bar. But once I changed to a smaller straight bar it went away. Then while drying my face after a shower my stud fell into the carpet never to be seen again and it was a sunday and all the shops were shut and so I just let it close.

About the bump thing - did you guys with the bump on the inside of the nostril get it pierced with the ear piercing gun? Cuz that's what causes it! ]]> Sun, 20 Jun 2010 07:54:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069487&title=nose-piercing#1069487 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069459&title=nose-piercing#1069459 Author: tictacjunkie

Just thinking- DH can take his tongue bar out indefinitely & hasn't had a problem putting it back in- being high voltage electrician he has to wear the plastic ones too, guess it's just different body chemistry?]]> Sun, 20 Jun 2010 00:03:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069459&title=nose-piercing#1069459 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069457&title=nose-piercing#1069457 Author: tictacjunkie

I only had my tongue for 3 years, i had those silicone bendy bars which are a lot skinnier than the metal ones so that might have had something to do with it. My ears never stay open for long either, & I had the first ones done when I was 5! & yep, I swallowed a couple of balls too. The last one was when I first got preg this time, one of those glow-in-the-dark ones so I got kinda worried about the plastic dissolving in my stomach acid & affecting baby. Can we say "super paranoid"?

I had my nose pierced for about 6 years, on and off. Always had a lump in there but it was never sore after the initial healing period.
Mine closed up pretty quick, within 48 hours but you should be well fine to take it out and replace it by now.]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 22:15:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069429&title=nose-piercing#1069429 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069423&title=nose-piercing#1069423 Author: minik8e

I had to take my tongue bar out for last c-sect, it was jolly hard to get it back in! My other piercings I just had to have plastic/silicone instead. Taken them all out now, something about them grossed me out with this last lot of m/s. DH took out his labret about month ago, still open. You should be fine to take it out for makeup etc. My one used to pop out when I yawned, usually in the shower, where it disappeared down the drain! Good thing they're not too expensive, =). ]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 21:45:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069379&title=nose-piercing#1069379 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069300&title=nose-piercing#1069300 Author: minik8e

Mine doesn't close up that quick....I've had to take it out for surgeries and MRI scans (so between 30 mins and 3-4 hours) and never had a problem getting it back in. I've had it for nearly 12 years now though. Oh, and I don't have a lump, but I can't remember whether I did when I had it done.]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 20:35:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069300&title=nose-piercing#1069300 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069276&title=nose-piercing#1069276 Author: High9

Mine closed up after 2 days, then again I only left it in for 2 days after getting it done (I sorta hyperventilated when getting it done - have a fear of blood noses so wasn't the smartest idea getting it done!) No lump from me, but there was one until it closed. ]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 20:02:02 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069242&title=nose-piercing#1069242 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069240&title=nose-piercing#1069240 Author: lil_lease

mine has been out for years and with a wee bit of effort i can still get an earing in. lol. i would leave it a couple months before taking it out and maybe take it out for short periods building up and see how long it takes before you have to wiggle it back in so you get an idea of how long it can stay out for cos everyone is different. im sure i had a small lump the whole time i had it in but i dont remember?]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 19:59:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069238&title=nose-piercing#1069238 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069231&title=nose-piercing#1069231 Author: tictacjunkie

I used to take mine out often (before I took it out permanently about ten years ago) and after about an hour or so it'd need a hard push to get it back in. I still have a slight bump on the inside of my nostril, but thankfully no external scar!]]> Sat, 19 Jun 2010 19:53:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069231&title=nose-piercing#1069231 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=34159&PID=1069203&title=nose-piercing#1069203 Author: TysMummy
