Is it normal for my nose piercing to stick out?

This means that the jewelry, at first, will be slightly larger in order to accommodate for swelling. This may cause the screw to protrude from the base of the nose. If you find your nostril screw sticking out, or the ends flip down after getting the piercing, give it a week; this will often resolve itself.

If your nose stud keeps falling out there are a few things that could be happening. You may just need a different style of jewelry, the gauge may be too thin, or the top part of the stud (where the design or gem is) may be too top-heavy. If youre just wearing the wrong style thats an easy fix!

Additionally, how do I get my nose ring to fit snug? Use a ruler and a piece of paper to find out which inner diameter will fit your nostril snugly. Dont just hold a ruler up to your nose and try to see what it says in the mirror. Cut a small strip of paper, line up the top with your piercing, and mark where the edge of your nostril is on the bottom of the paper.

Keeping this in view, how do I know my nose piercing is healing?

If it looks like your skins gone back to normal, youre probably ready to change your nose ring. If there is swelling, redness or other forms of discoloration, or any discharge from the piercing, leave it alone for the time being. Those are signs that it hasnt finished healing.

Is my nose ring too big?

Although this could mean that the gauge is too thin, it could also mean that you have a nose ring with too large of an inner diameter. For example, if you purchased a beaded nose hoop from me and you find that the beads are constantly falling down your nostril, then you most likely need a smaller inner diameter.
