I have a hard lump inside my left nostril and is very painfull. Its been there for bout 8 months. it sometimes looks like its coming to a head, a white spot. But when I try to get it out nothing is there. I am a 8 yr breast cancer survivor , I had lump nodes pos & went thru chemo as well as a full masectomy. should I be alarmed?

hard lump in the nostril and breast cancer , i think, not related. you should examine by E.N.T. surgeon. this may be deviated septum(mid line in nostril) or polyps or thickened turbinate . All these conditions can be treated effectively by E.N.T. surgeon
