Most body piercing jewelry consists of rings, hoops, studs, or barbell-shaped ornaments. The size and shape of jewelry is determined by the body site pierced and personal prefer-ences. Jewelry is not always interchangeable between piercing sites. In particular, jewelry designed for ear piercing may not be suitable for another part of the body because of the length of the post or the pressure exerted by the clasp.
The nose can be pierced in the fleshy nares or through the cartilaginous septum. Septal piercings usually are performed in the inferior fleshy part of the septum and not through cartilaginous tissue. Piercing the cartilage can cause significant bleeding and lead to septal hema-toma formation that often is accompanied by infection. Other potential complications that may result in cos-metic deformity include perichondritis and necrosis of the cartilaginous nasal wall. Infection requires aggres-sive treatment with antibiotics that have good coverage against Staphylococcus species that commonly colonize the nasal mucosa. Mupirocin is effective and offers excellent coverage against gram-positive cocci. Fluoro-quinolones have the advantage of excellent skin penetra-tion and added coverage against Pseudomonas species.Nasal jewelry has the potential to be aspirated or swal-lowed. Rings placed in the nostril or septum also can migrate forward or be pulled out. As with ear piercing, the studs or backings of the jewelry may become embed-ded and require surgical removal.31
