• Cartilage piercings are more irritable than ear piercings as they take longer to heal.
• They are prone to irritation, and you may notice some swelling or a bump around the pierced area a few days after the procedure.
• Other signs that could show up are redness of the skin, bruising, mild pain, and bleeding.
• The symptoms don’t go away quickly; cartilage piercings can take anywhere between 4 to 12 months to heal completely.
• More than that, you’re also likely to experience symptoms such as itching and discoloration of the skin while the pierced area is healing.
• With that in mind, let’s look at cartilage piercing bumps in detail:
What is Cartilage Piercing Bumps?
• Bumps appearing after a cartilage piercing is a very common phenomenon, and they are usually caused by the irritation discussed earlier.
• The bumps can form right after the piercing or even after some time.
• The swelling decreases as the pierced area heal with time. However, if you still have a bump on the skin, it might be due to:
1. A granuloma, which is a lesion that shows up 6 weeks after a piercing
2. A pustule: a pimple or blister with pus
3. A keloid: a thick scar that develops on the pierced area
• Piercing bumps can also be caused by poor aftercare, genetics, allergies, and bad luck. It’s definitely hard to avoid bumps caused by the last one.
• However, these bumps do completely go away with the right treatment.
When to Get Medical Attention
• While some swelling and redness of the skin are expected, more severe symptoms related to a cartilage piercing bump can indicate a more complicated health issue.
• You should consult with a doctor if you experience:
1. Vomiting
2. Chills
3. Nausea
4. Dizziness
5. Unusually smelly or thick discharge
6. Uncomfortable pain or swelling
7. Green, gray, or yellow discharge
Treatment for Cartilage Piercing Bumps
• You can deal with cartilage piercing bumps yourself if the symptoms are not severe.
• The first step to take is to try and change your jewelry. Some people are allergic to certain metals, while some might experience irritation due to contact dermatitis.
• Changing jewelry to remove it from your skin for some time can help.
• The irritation could also be caused by a dirty piercing.
• Try cleaning out the piercing if changing it doesn’t work.
• Finally, try out compresses, such as chamomile, to get more blood into your cartilage and pump it full of antioxidants.
• This can help you heal quicker.
