I recently got my septum re pierced because it was too low in my nose. When I got it re pierced it ended up being a lot higher (right below the cartilage in my nose). It’s been two weeks and I’ve been trying to take care of it as well as I can. I decided to try and put in a different ring just for a quick second to see what it would look like and when I tried putting in the captive ring that I have as well as my horseshoe ring (I was pierced with a retainer) they both hurt too much to put in as well as the captive ring just would fit in my nose. Is my piercing TOO high now compared to too low? Is it just way too soon to even try to put in a new ring? Am I stuck with wearing a retainer forever? I went to somewhere with a really high reputation for a piercing place (in western massachusetts) and had a very experienced piercer pierce me. Both times I was pierced with a 16g. I can provide a picture if none of this makes sense. help!

Unfortunately without seeing the piercing, it’s difficult to answer this question.
There’s always a possibility your piercing was done too high up, but there’s an even better possibility that you’ll just need to get a different diameter of jewelry to wear so that it fits.
