What Are Bleeding Bumps Around The Pierced Nipple Indicative Of?

Hi I had my nipple pierced 3 months ago, however I have developed a small skin coloured bump on either end of the holes where my nipple was pierced. They bleed a bit but I ve been trying to keep them fairly clean for the last week. Should I go to a doctor or would I possibly get toxic shock syndrome. Or is this normal with piercings?

Hi
This sounds like bleeding cysts and not normal so you need to have a doctor take a look at you. Not toxic shock syndrome
