Because it is infected. Either you didn't keep it clean or you used cheap metal jewelry in the pierced hole. You need to clean it thoroughly with hydrogen peroxide or alcohol. Then, if you still want to keep the hole, you need to put new jewelry in the hole, but it MUST be either 10K gold minimum or surgical steel. Keep the hole moist with vaseline or antibiotic ointment. AND KEEP IT CLEAN or you'll be reinfected.

It's not puss if it's whitish in color, if it's clear then you have an issue, if it's green then you have and infection. If the discharge is clear your saliva duct has been pierced and you need to have the piercing cauterized by a doctor and you will loose the piercing. If the discharge is green and the piercing is red then you have an infection and again need to see the doctor to have it looked at. A whitish yellow discharge is normal lymphatic matter and that will ease as the piercing generates a light heal ( about 2 weeks sometimes longer ) the piercing will not be fully healed for several months and can take up to a year to season.
White puss coming out of your nose piercing what does that mean?
Well it simply means the piercing is healing, that's lymphatic matter. You body generates this as it builds new tissue. So as the healing progresses this discharge will ease off. Just simply irrigate the piercing under running water in the shower and shuffle or rotate the jewellery while rinsing the piercing. There is no need nor should you even use alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, bactine or any other solution on your piercing. That's it, nothing more.
