Keloid by piercing..pleaseee help?

Ok so i got the industrial piercing in july so for 2 months now and i noticed a little bump on the back of my bottom hole. it looks like a pimple but if im correct thats how a "keloid" first develops. im getting worried bc i've seen pictures of keloids and i hope it doesnt turn out to be like that. i was wondering if i should take out the piercing and leave it out..i clean it once a day now so should i clean it more often? is there anything i can do to get rid of the bump? any professional piercers out there who can answer this??

Keloid by piercing..pleaseee help?
you need to take the piercing out immediately ONLY if you notice that the "bump" is growing. You should clean it more than once a day.
Reply:it always happens when you get your cartilage pierced, its a calcium build up.
Reply:I am not a pro..but the same thing happen to me and I took it out let it heal completly then I got it done again...take it out immediatly and keep it clean ...
Reply:well, take the peircing out and examine ring for any buildup. clean it in peroxide. while the jewelry sokes, try squeezing the bump, it is very very very common to have a mini iffection by the whole, or have a water blister, etc. happens all the time. if anything does comeout, this is a general rule of thumb to follow, if it is clear dont worry, white is infection, yellow is really ifected, and you should go to the doctor for it, and when you squeeze it im may bleed a little. dont worry, its just irritated. once the bubbles have disapeared off the jewelry, put it back in, and make an appt with the doctor if necesary.
Reply:corticosteroid injections will get rid of it.. make an appointment with ur dermatologist
