well i changed mine but if you mess with it too much itll be irritated and it might hurt afterwards but make sure the ring has been soaked in alcohol for at least 30 minutes so you can e sure not to get an infection.

you should wait at least a few weeks to be certain that the hole will be formed enough to not reject the metal...also, you should use a surgical steel or titanium ring, NEVER gold plated or sterling silver, that's just asking for infection.

i suggest you dont i just had my nose pierced and i changed the stud a few days later before the healing time was done and my nose got infected.You should wait until your piercing is fully healed before changing it.
