Asked By:SeanEcky in Orange Cove, CA

Also it’s not sore and stopped growing. 5 years ago I got my nipple peirced and it got infected and never seem to go down. I tryed salt bathing it but it’s never gone back to the way it first looked. I was wondering if there’s anything I can put on it to reduce the swelling or if there’s any surgery I can have to cut off the growth.
