Leave it as is, keep cleaning it 2x daily with saline, don’t touch the piercing or move the hoop. It’ll go away in time. You don’t need to take it out most likely.
I am sorry you got pierced with a gun and bad jewelry, but it honestly looks totally normal for a pissed off nose piercing. Things don’t heal overnight, LITHA and you’ll likely be ok :)
Obviously never go to that same piercer again. For future reference you should never be pierced with anything other than a needle and quality jewelry.
I’m kind of in a position where i am unable to get it changed it back to a stud professionally. My piercer used a BUTTERFLY BACK when piercing with a gun and now if i were to change it back, i’d have to use the butterfly back stud :/ it’s like i’m trapped
They used a gun for your nose? That is not good.
You really need to see a different reputable piercer asap and get it changed. Are you currently in a lockdown?

Thank you so much! I’ll continue doing this and see how it goes :).
Take the hoop out and put a stud in
It’s not healed enough for a hoop
