I think my hole stretched out

I had my nose pierced two days ago and when I woke up I noticed my piercing had stretched out and the stud sunk in a little. Is that normal? It also feels a little irritated. I have been cleaning it like four times a day and also catch myself touching it. Would that affect it?

that happened to me too! i was FREAKING out, cuz one morning i woke up and my piercing had sunk in the hole. and i didnt want it to heal over it. so with a clean qtip which i dipped in a sea salt solution, i pushed it back into place through my nose and now its fine. i think it happened because my nose was swollen at that point and the piercing hold got bigger? idk, but im just glad its better now lol

mine is doing the same thing i got it done the 25th and its now the 28th... i take it you piercing is a 20gauge... i heard this is common among the smaller size piercings. Just use a warm salt water solution and keep it clean... if it completely sinks in go to your piercer lol
