Hey there. Apologies as I noted this query just today. By now, your question of continuation of the meds is understandably redundant. However, I take it the bigger underlying concern is how to get rid of the 'bump' completely. A more detailed history will be required to give you a clear solution. Where exactly is the piercing? site matters and dictates treatment options Are there any other piercings that developed bumps like this or were there  similar swellings at sites of injury 🤕 in the past or at surgical scars if any? If you are Bangalore based, it will be easier to suggest a visit in person to clear this An Online Consultation initially may be best in case we require any preliminary blood tests etc before an intended procedure etc Hope this is useful info. Godspeed 🙏
