When I had my nose pierced, the piercer recommended wiping it with salt water. Basically, get some clean cold water from the tap and mix in some salt, then use that. Or you can go to where you got it pierced and they should have bottled saline solution.

You don't want to put Epsom Salt OR table salt on ANY piercing. They contain sugar and will cause infection. The ONLY thing to put on a fresh piercing is SEA SALT. Using 1/4tsp of sea salt with 8oz. of warm water, and soak the piercing for about 10 minutes twice a day. It is the best thing to help heal your piercing. When you are in the shower, use Dial soap to clean it also. But sea salt soaks are amazing for helping heal a piercing.
Can you use a crushed aspirin on a nose piercing to help heal?
Never heard of that but I wouldn't do it. The paste might be too thick and it can dry out your piercing. Just stick to natural sea salt and warm water soaks. You can take aspirin for swelling but it wont speed up healing Aspirin on a piercing will not "help" it heal, it's acid. Why would you put acid on any injury? Use common sense, move the jewellery under running water while showering and after your shampoo and conditioner, keep make up away from it and it will heal.

First off, if its infected, be sure to go to the doctor. They'll probably prescribe an antibiotic, which will prevent complications from the infection and will help clear the infection up a lot quicker. it really depends on the severity of the infection and how well you care for the piercing. The infection should clear up within 4 weeks but the piercing will take longer to heal because of the trauma caused by the infection.
