Takeaway. A nose piercing can heal and maintain itself well with regular cleanings. However, as with any piercing, there’s always a risk for complications. Infections and scarring are most common with new nose piercings, but they can still occur with healed piercings, too.
Keeping this in view, why is my nose piercing sore after a year?
Granuloma is the injury to the nose or the area that surrounds the nose which some times cause nose piercing still red after a year. The injuries may be external or internal and that may cause granuloma.
Likewise, people ask, does a nose piercing ever fully heal? It may be sore, tender, and red for up to 3 weeks. Pierced nostrils heal completely in about 2 to 4 months. A pierced septum heals in about 3 to 4 months.
In this way, can a nose piercing take a year to heal?
Nose piercings take a little longer to heal than other common piercings, but they shouldn’t take more than 9 months. See your piercer or a healthcare provider if you notice any unusual or painful symptoms, or if it’s taking longer than 9 months to heal.
