in side nostril lump

I pierced my nose several years ago, I recently noticed a small hard lump (like a ball) inside my nostril where I tried to do piercing, I'm not sure if it has always been there and I have just noticed it. Could this be just scar tissue? Or could it be something more severe? I have no other side effects.

a small hard lump after piercing could be a granuloma (reactive tissue built up at the piercing site)

your doctor can apply silver nitrate or liquid nitrogen to get rid of it.
