What Causes Painful Scabs In And Around Nasal Passages?
I keep getting painful scabs in and around my nasal passages. I don't have a cold and I'm not congested, but I keep waking up with this. As soon as it heals, it will happen again a few weeks later. My nose will run sporadically sometimes. It hurts and it looks terrible. What is going on? Do I have staph in my nose or something?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The chances of fungal infection is very likely, if I would be your doctor then I would treat you with the ointment containing "Miconazole and Beclomethasone" this will clear the lesion within few days have nice time.
