Hi. Do you mean wound in nose or only soreness? There is something we call as collumellitis, meaning infection in the angles formed by septum just below the tip of nose. This is difficult to treat. Many times a habit for touching the nose unknowingly and repeatedly enhances this. An antibiotic solution or ointment locally helps.
