Septum piercings can be painful, especially if the septum deviates. It feels like a strong pinch/prick/sting. A septum piercing is a piercing that goes through the nasal septum. The nasal septum is the partition that divides the nose into two nasal cavities or nostrils.
Beside above, can you hide a septum piercing right away?
You can flip it up immediately after getting it pierced. That’s what I did. I kept in flipped up 80% of the time while it was healing because it was just easier to deal with.
Correspondingly, why are septum piercings dangerous? A septal hematoma can develop if the piercing damages blood vessels and the tissue lining the cartilage, causing blood to collect between the two. This can cause pain, swelling, pressure, and congestion. Bloodborne diseases.
