Suggest Treatment For A Mass Inside The Nostril Of A Child
My 5 year old has a swollen nostril on her left side. I peeked inside and saw a big red mass there, she didn t have any external nose bleed, but it appears to be bled inside. It doesn t seem to bother her too much, she does try to pick it sometimes, and painful to the touch. Is there anything I can do to help her myself or do I need to take her to the doctor?

Hi...what you are seeing could be an enlarged inferior turbinate or a polyp in the nose. I suggest you not to disturb the blood clot and consult your ENT surgeon immediately. Please do not self medicate or intervene by yourself.
