Nose Soreness, Crusting, Bleeding, White Sores, Mucus In Back Of Throat. What Is This?
I have had a sore in my nose for about two weeks, alot of crusting, some bleeding. There appear to be a few white sores and the tissue is red and slightly inflamed. For the last two days, the mucus in the back of my nose/ throat has become thick and is causing me to gag. Could you tell me what this is and if I should see a doctor?
Hi, It appears that due to chronic or allergic rhinitis there might be having some infection in your nasal mucosa giving rise to this problem. Take some decongestant medicine for 2-3 days. Go for one antibiotic medicine for 3 days. apply some antibiotic cream in nose. Do not try to remove crusts from nose as it may precipitate bleeding from nose. Avoid cold drinks. Ok and take care.
HI, I had gone through your query , it suggests that your are suffering from the rhinosinusitis with oropharyngitis. In this type of our patients I advised the course of antibiotics, antiallergic, normal saline nasal drops with liquid paraffin . Avoid nasal pricking . Better to consult ENT specialist.
Wish you good health Dr Hariom Sharma
