'The internet told me I have a Keloid' We see bumps on clients piercing's, unfortunately this is not uncommon but generally these bumps are confused with something they are not. More commonly these bumps tend to be a soft fluid build up (much like spot next to the piercing) that fills and can leak a watery pus like fluid (sometimes a little blood) This does not implicate infection or that the bump  'Will never go away' With the correct method it is possible to get rid of these bumps and get the piercing back to being happy and healthy - some time and TLC always helps. Things you can do to help this along the way... Book a check up! Talk with your piercer and get as much advise as possible. Is it time to change the jewellery? It may be that the jewellery is now to long and this is causing healing issues/friction to the area and causing further irritation. Revisit your aftercare! Have you stopped clenaing your piercing too soon? We advise getting back on your saline baths no more than twice a day! Have you been over doing it with the clean? It is possible for you to over clean a piercing, please listen to the advise of your piercer to insure you are not irrataing the piercing by over cleaning the area, causing the bump. Have you been sleeping on the piercing? We always advise to stay off of the piercing while it's healing to allow it the best chance. We understand ears can be tricky as you can role over in your sleep but a constant amount of pressure on a healing wound can cause some serious irritation and problems. Piercing's can develop keloid scars but this tends to be in people who are more prone to keloids when they have scar tissue. It is more likely to be an irriation bump which is much easier to deal with. As always we recommed getting in touch and booking a check up so we can advise as best knowledge as possible ​
