What Causes Nostril Burning Sensation?

For the last few days, I have felt a burning sensation in one of my nostrils. It comes and goes and only lasts for a few seconds at a time. I haven t had any nose bleeds or irritation out of the ordinary. It is just an odd sensation/irritation that I m wondering if I should have checked out.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have burning sensation in nostril which seems to be due to entrapment of foreign bodies in nose leading to allergic rhinitis. I would suggest you to take few preventive measures such as use ndal sprays and along with that you should take antiallergic medication such as Levocetrizine and proper course of antibiotic such ascAmoxicillin for 5 days to supress infection. Avoid intake of cold beverages and spicy, sharp and oily food. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should go for paranasal sinus X-ray and get it examined and start treatment after proper diagnosis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
