A bump around your dimple piercing is the body guarding the piercing, the surrounding tissue toughens as the piercing heals. This will ease off as the piercing heals, ensure you are rinsing the piercing daily under running water (best done in the shower after shampoo and conditioner as these tend to irritate the piercing). Should you have serious concerns contact your body piercer and let him/her have a look at it.

I think you mean a Hypertrophic Reaction, this is a bump or bubble that appears beside the entry or exit point of the piercing. This is a reaction to an irritant generally due to misuse of after care products, skin care lotions, hair conditioner and generally anything your body doesn't like. To get rid or the bump you first need to realize that you are causing the issue by over using or misusing aftercare solutions or hair care products and allowing them to enter the actual piercing. Flushing the piercing while moving the jewellery under running water in the shower will over time rinse the irritant away and the body will start healing the piercing.
Is it okay to clean a lip piercing with germ X?
You should use nothing stronger than soap and water to clean your piercings. Lot's of sites will tell you to use this and that and so many times a day. Bottom line wash it in the morning and leave it alone and it will heal just fine. Healing agents are not to be used on deep wounds or puncture wounds ( a piercing is a puncture wound). Using these agents will cause the formation of a hypertrophic reaction (looks like a bump beside the piercing). Once they are formed they are difficult to get rid of and cause unsightly bruising around the piercing.

If I have a bump on the back of your cartilage piercing and take out the stud will the bump disappear?
When I went back to my piercing place where I got my cartilage pierced, they told me the lump was due to me sleeping on the pierced ear. They told me from now on try not to sleep on that ear as the lump is due to the pressure of your earring pushing up against the skin. To get rid of a cartilage piercing bump: 1) All you have to do is buy some aspirin and then use one tablet and crush it (into eg a bowl). 2) Then add a tiny bit of cold water. 3) Then mix it together and it should turn into a sort of paiste. 4) Then apply this onto the cartilage bump, using a cotton bud or something. (but try not to get it on any other part of your skin). 5) Keep doing this once a day everyday until the bump dissapears. Mine took me three days to go.
How do you get rid of a piercing bump on your ear?
There isn't a way you can get rid of it. that is swelling from the piercing. It may be many things. If it hurts, seeps, oozes or bleeds then it's an infection of some kind, or swelling and the best way to deal with that would be salt water soaks (boiling water + half teaspoon of sea salt allowed to cool to warm water, soak your piercing in it for a few minutes twice a day.) However, if there's no pain or discharge then it's probably scar tissue which is slightly harder to get rid of, changing the jewellery to something better fitting can help. If the scar is around a ring or other curved jewelry, switch to something straight, like a barbell. If it's on an industrial, put individual jewelry in each piercing. Consult your piercer for jewelry changes in unhealed piercings. Other solutions can be cammomile tea bag compresses (soak in warm water, hold to the piercing twice a day) or massaging with vitamin E oil.
How do you get rid of bumps next to your ear piercing?
Its simple : take care of it properly. Piercing bumps, more technically called Hypertrophic Scarring, are caused by excessive irritation to the piercing. This irritation can come from overcleaning, overusing salt water, playing with the jewelry constantly, excessively changing the jewelry, etc. To get rid of the bump, you have to get rid of the irritation. For the outer lip part of the piercing, clean it once a day with antibacterial (Dial) soap...not more than that. For the inner lip, rinse with mouthwash twice a day (when you brush your teeth in the morning and at night). Do not overuse the mouthwash; it can severely dry out your mouth. I would recommend to not use salt water at all; it is very drying and irritating to the piercing and the skin around it. It can cause dryness, itchiness and flakiness. If you still feel you must use it, never use it more than once a day. Do not touch the jewelry unless it is to clean it, and even then, make sure your hands are washed first. Dirty hands spread bacteria. Pick one piece of jewelry and stick with it. Constantly changing the jewelry will cause moderate to severe irritation. Good luck!
