Consequences and contraindications
As such, the direct contraindications to the piercing is not. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the speed at which the wound heals. The longer it takes for the puncture to heal, the greater the chance of infection entering the wound. This is fraught with various complications in the care and even surgical interventions.
Complications after a nose piercing:
- Runny nose. Quite unpleasant, but a natural consequence. Violation of the integrity of the mucosa the body perceives as a viral attack. To get rid of it, it "turns on" all the defenses, including the runny nose. This unpleasantness will disappear in a few days;
- Painfulness. When the septum is punctured, there is an unpleasant feeling of susceptibility of the tip of the nose. It is really impossible to touch it. Together with this, the cartilage does not hurt - there are no nerve endings in it. The pain from the wing of the nose can spread to the entire half of the face with which the puncture is placed. The same phenomenon is tracked in those who have had an eyebrow piercing;
- Inflammation and suppuration. There is no doubt that if the nose is inflamed, then it has not been cared for properly. But punctures in this part of the body are very difficult to wash - you can't see the mucosa. And abscesses can not be recognized at all, as long as there is no unpleasant smell;
- Problems with food intake. This happens not only after the piercing of the tongue or lip. When chewing, the nose moves slightly, as it does when speaking. Any movement in the first few weeks after the piercing will have a dull pain in the wing or tip of the nose;
- Bulging in the place of the piercing. Nose redness and a little swelling? It is better to take out the earring primitive and meticulously treat the hole, until the wing or septum did not suppurate. Right also need to do, if the earring fails.
How to put a nose piercing in the steps
The technique of putting on an earring depends on its shape and location of the piercing. The traditional is considered to be the piercing of the wing of the nose, more unusual is the piercing of the septum. The septum is the cartilage that lies between the nostrils.

- Carnations

. This is a more professional earring. The key difference is the unusual curved shape. While the clove clip can protrude unsightly and be noticeable at some head angles, the hook is completely invisible from the inside; - Rings
. Rarely used for nose wing piercings, but great for the septum, ear, lip or eyebrow. They consist of an uncovered ring and a clamping ball. Most often, threaded connections are used as fasteners-it allows you to quickly and securely fasten the jewelry in the piercing.

How to put a nail earring into the nose:
- The piercing is rinsed with alcohol or Chlorhexidine. It is mandatory to wipe the inside of the nose. Dust often collects on the mucosa that you are not even aware of. It is it that can later cause inflammation and festering;
- The edge of the nose is gently pulled away. In professional conditions, it is fixed with forceps, but if they are not at hand, just hold the wing with your fingers;
- The tip of the nail is carefully placed in the puncture. To push it in, there is no need to push hard. Just gently twist the rod through the hole. Two problems can arise here: the nail won't go through or it's stuck. This happens because of overgrowth of the hole or misdirection. Try gently twisting the rod in different directions. If the earring goes further, you just did not get into the hole right away. If it stalled, then you need to go to the salon - perhaps the piercing is overgrown; Figure inserting a nail earring
- When the edge of the nail came out of the hole, you need to pull it down with tweezers. A clip is put on the tip of the earring. Do not press down hard, otherwise there will be inflammation. Try to fix the earring in a middle position, but that it does not dangle, otherwise it will fall out.

- The free edge of the ring (without the thread for the clamp) is inserted into the hole in the nose and gently moved along the cartilage. If your nose still hurts, we recommend treating your mucosa with an anesthetic when putting it on; Figure septum ring
- Twisting the earring, you need to push it toward the exit. If it goes tightly, you can jiggle the ring slightly in different directions;

- When the earring is threaded in, no clips or retainers are put on it. The tip is simply pressed firmly against the mucosa. In this way, the hole is quickly and securely closed. If you do not manage to screw the hook in, it is better to go to the salon. At home, you can scratch the nasal mucosa, after which the piercing will begin to actively overgrow.

Earrings and jewelry for nose piercings
Earrings are divided not only by shape, but also by the purpose and the material from which they are made. The following materials are used to make earrings for piercing:
- Medical steel. Previously, all the salons that provided services for pierced ears, eyebrows and nose, worked only with such jewelry. But, the main thing to know one thing - the term "medical iron" does not exist at all. It is a combination of steel and titanium. It does not affect the speed of healing of the puncture in any way, but it does not corrode;
- Plastic. It looks very strange, in the holes will not actually feel because of its small weight. Enjoys a special love among informal girls. Characterized by ease of care and stability to external negative factors. In addition, does not freeze in cold weather;
- Gold piercing in the nose is particularly expensive, but the most harmless. The main advantages of this decent metal is that it promotes regeneration and is very rarely rejected by the body;
- Silver. More inexpensive than gold, but no less famous expensive metal. Suitable for virtually everyone. Can cause allergies only in exceptional cases.
Types of earrings
Now there are many varieties of earrings for nose piercing. Due to the considerable variety, every girl can pick the option that will appeal to her, will be the most comfortable or the most beautiful. Types of earrings:
- Rings. Look like an uncovered ring and a ball clamp. They are used to decorate the piercings in the area of the wing of the nose. Often attached by means of threaded connections.
- Nostrils, snails, spirals and hooks. Are distinguished by their unusual shape. They resemble a curved nail, the outer part of which is decorated with a pebble or bead. Unlike simple nails, they are not visible from the inside, and are attached more securely; they will not fall out.
- Nails. They are the simplest design, consisting of a bar with a clip and an attractive jewelry (for example, a pebble of various shapes), easily put on and taken off. Most often it is a gold clove earring that is installed after a nose piercing.
Of course, it is best that the first time after the piercing earring nose put on a professional - a beautician. Only after the complete healing of tissues can experiment - to change the jewelry for others.
Treatment and care for the nose after the piercing
Improper care for the piercing is extremely dangerous. He is the cause of more than 90% of inflammation and suppuration.
Figure the result of improper septum care
To avoid the troubles associated with piercings, you need to know the following rules:
- Treat the nose twice a day. In the morning and in the evening. But, if it was windy outside, it is excellent to wipe the earring and mucosa immediately after coming home (i.e., it will be a triple treatment);
- Regular application of the ointment will help speed up the healing process. For it to work, the compound is spread over the entire bar, ring or hook. To do this, a small ball of ointment is applied to the tip of the earring, and then it is moved in different directions;
- If the nose itches - in no case do not touch it with your fingers. This is how the healing process takes place. Once patience is no longer strong - gently sweep around the area of discomfort with a cotton stick in "Chlorhexidine";
- Do not wash the hole with hydrogen peroxide. It dissolves the growths that have formed and slows tissue regeneration;
- If a bump has formed in the place of the piercing, there is pus in it. This phenomenon is called granuloma. It occurs due to allergies to the selected material of the earrings or the wrong place pierced. To get rid of it, on the piercing need to apply a small amount of peroxide, and then gently press. Each infectious mass should come out;
- It happens that the piercing fell out. Never put it back in without machining. The same applies to the clamping balls.
How do I take it out?
Quite common is also a difficulty in extracting the earring from the nose, especially if it is inserted for the first time. But it is possible to cope with this task on your own, if you adhere to the simple instructions:
- The first thing to do is to wash your hands thoroughly and treat your hands, earring and nose with antiseptic (for example, chlorhexidine).
- To remove the ring from the nose, you need to unfasten it: remove the ball retainer or stretch it to open the slot (if the jewelry is closed). There are also rings with a segment removed, they have a removable part that covers the removed part of the earring. It must be removed to remove the jewelry from the nose.
- To remove an earring in the form of a straight axis (nail, etc.), you need to pull on both of its edges. This will help remove the retainer and remove the jewelry. However, it is worth noting that some studs have a non-removable stopper in the form of a ball. To take out such a piece of jewelry, you need to put a little pressure on the inner part (the ball), and the earring will slip out.
- To remove the nostril, you can simply pull slowly on the decorative part of the earring. With a more curved cochlea, you need to gently press down on the inside of the cochlea, which is in the nose. In parallel, you should twist the jewelry with the other hand. To fully extract the earring with a hook, you may need to make a couple or three full turns. It is useful to use lubricant (for example, Bepanten cream), it will facilitate the process of removal.
All manipulations to remove the earrings and to replace them with new ones is better to perform after the piercing is completely healed. Faced with any difficulties, it is advisable to seek help from a specialist.
How long does it heal?
Much depends on the characteristics of the body and the chosen time of the year. According to statistics, in winter and autumn, piercings and tattoos heal much more slowly than in summer. This is affected by avitaminosis, hypothermia and reduced immunity.
Belly button piercing heals at least half a year, lips - 2 months. The cartilage in the septum never heals. It easily "rubs off", due to which it ceases to excite its owner. Reviews claim that the piercing in the wing of the nose will fully tighten only after 6 - 8 months.
Preparation of the piercing site and anesthesia is carried out to
- Sterilization and prevention of infection of the piercing site;
- Eliminate pain sensations;
- Creation of optimal conditions for the work of a craftsman.
Solutions, which treat the puncture site, to obtain a sterile nasal skin surface (optional):
- Iodonate - 5-7 ml of solution, 2 times for at least 1 minute;
- Iodopyron - the same as iodonate;
- Iodixin - moisten the surface for 2 minutes (can be used for nasal treatment from the inside);
- Iodinol - put a soaked sponge into the nostril for 2 minutes (treatment of the nose from the inside);
- Hybitan (chlorhexidine diguconate) - 0,5% alcohol solution - place a swab in the nostril for 3 minutes 2 times (nasal treatment from inside is possible);
Client and master: Incomplete treatment of the puncture site leads to infection. The use of irritating antiseptic solutions for nasal mucosa treatment leads to mucosa burns and prolongs the healing period of the puncture site.

What and why are maxillary sinuses punctured?
The pathogenetic mechanism of maxillary sinusitis is based on a continuous infectious process in the maxillary sinuses, which takes a protracted course due to the accumulation of purulent secretions in the confined space. As soon as adequate drainage is achieved, i.e. the nasal secretion outflow from the maxillary sinuses, the efficiency of anti-inflammatory therapy reaches its maximum, and the patient recovers.
A puncture of the maxillary sinus, which medics usually call a puncture, is designed to mechanically drain the sinus of the nose. Needle for puncture is introduced under the lower nasal concha, find a place in the medial wall of the sinus, which has the smallest thickness, and pierce the bone tissue. This provides a forced and unavoidable drainage of the sinus contents, after which it is flushed with antiseptics. This further increases the effectiveness of the procedure.
How to get a piercing in the salon and at home
For many uninitiated people, the process of nose piercing seems simple. A common belief is that the procedure uses an automatic gun. In reality, the master uses a needle with a catheter. In rare cases, a gun is used.

Nose piercing in the salon:
- Disinfection of working tools and the chosen jewelry.
- The marking of the place of the future location of the piercing is carried out.

How to do a puncture in maxillary sinusitis
We will not mislead readers by convincing them that doing a puncture is pleasant. Of course, puncture is not the most harmless method, so it is used only in extreme cases, when other types of help have been exhausted. Let's look at the puncture in detail and find out if it hurts to have a puncture for maxillary sinusitis and what sensations can occur during surgery.
Anesthesia
Before the procedure, the doctor necessarily conducts local anesthesia. Anesthetics can be tetracaine, lidocaine 4% and a combination of anesthetic and vasoconstrictor, most commonly adrenaline. A sponge moistened with the medicine is wound onto a thin spatula and inserted deep into the nasal cavity.
Therefore, the answer to the most painful question in all senses, which does not give sleep and rest to a person who is preparing for a puncture of the maxillary sinus, is simple and uncomplicated. There will be no painful shock at the time of the puncture, just as there will be no pain at all. The only unpleasant sensation that cannot be avoided is a rather loud crunch during the puncture of bone tissue. We perceive the sound of bone puncture as quite loud also because we hear it "from inside".
And, of course, you can't turn off your visual analyzer either. The patient observes the procedure and voluntarily surrenders to the mercy of the surgeon, allowing him to introduce a huge needle into the nasal cavity and perform bloody manipulations with it. Valerian extract or any other sedative taken half an hour before the puncture will help you cope with your emotions.
Puncture
After the doctor is convinced of the effectiveness of local anesthesia, he introduces a needle named after the famous Soviet otorhinolaryngologist Kulikovsky into the nasal sinus. It is a very intimidating long tubular device with thick walls, curved distally and provided with a cannula. With its help, the needle is easily connected to the syringe.
With this very Kulikovsky needle the doctor "finds" the operational area - the thinnest zone in the wall of the maxillary sinus - and lightly pierces it with his hand.
Irrigation
After performing a few correct and subtle movements for the suffering patient, the surgeon makes sure that the needle is located in the lumen of the sinus, and then proceeds to lavage. Using a syringe connected to the Kulikovsky needle, an antiseptic solution is fed into the maxillary sinus. Pus, liquefied by the medicine, finally leaves its place. The sinus is flushed until the flushes are transparent, without any admixture of blood and pus.
By the way, the patient should be prepared for the fact that in the process of washing his eyes will not see the most pleasant picture. In the tray, carefully supported by the nurse's hand, blood from the damaged sinus and purulent secretions will drip. A consolation in this case can be the thought that it is better to observe these substances in a tray under your nose than to carry them in your maxillary sinus.
After the lavage, the barbaric, in the opinion of thousands of patients, procedure of maxillary sinus puncture, comes to a logical conclusion. The patient goes home with a prescription with further prescriptions.
