Is It Safe To Re-pierce The Nose?
Hi I had some red skin around a nose piercing. A dermatologist gave me zyclara cream to put on the red spot for a month. The spot flared up, and then became crusty. When the scab fell off the skin was healed and the piercing was closed up. Is it safe for me to get my nose re pierced?

Hello,
A temporary inflammatory reaction at the skin piercing has occurred. There is no need to worry. You can re-pierce your nose in an aseptic condition at a good place.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Rajat Basak
