piercing problem

I've had my nose pierced for nearly 8 weeks now but I think it has got infected some how. There is a small lump which has formed above it, which I have heard is quite common and comes usually from knocking the piercing which sounds about right as I ripped it a tiny bit a day before the lump formed. :eek:
It's worrying me as I don't want it go grow any bigger as it is pretty noticeable already! I'm going to try and change the silver stud I have in now back to the original titanium one, even though it has a much thicker gauge as I think that might reduce infection.
Has anyone had something similar or know what I should do about it? thanks

Thanks, I actually had a look at that website earlier on this afternoon, it was pretty useful and good to know for future reference. Thanks :cool:
it will close up by then. even 1 day, at least my friends closed up after about a day, and she had had it in about a year.
