Nose Piercing Advice

Hi all! I am planning on piercing my nose this week but have a few questions maybe someone on here can help me with. 2 years ago I got my helix pierced and kept it clean but it still got a irritation bump and now when the jewelry is out looks like… weird. I am horrified of this happening on my face because I get very self conscious very easily. Any advice on how to get a smooth healing process with a nose piercing? Thank you guys. <3
