Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain it seems that there is inflammation in nose as well as throat due to snorting cocaine and there can be chemical burns causing the same..
I would suggest you to completely stop snorting cocaine and also start doing warm saline gargles..
Take Ibuprofen to relieve inflammation and pain..
Drink plenty of water, suck Vitamin C lozenges..
Avoid hot and spicy food..
In case of no improvement in a week consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
