Strange nose infection that won't go away...?!


Question: My nose has been infected for quite a while now, about three weeks. You know the type of infection, the one where there is a sharp stinging sensation everytime you move your nose...

I often get this type of infection, but only for like a day or so. it also often accompanies colds. I have tried putting polysporin on it and using lotion-tissues, but it persists! its getting really freaking annoying!

also for about two weeks the infection was only in my left nostril....maybe you could explain?

just to be clear, i have no cold like symptoms, that includes: runny nose, stuffed up nose, congestion, sinus pain, etc.

If you have not done anything different lately, like changing soaps, facial creams lotions...or maybe a piercing, I would go see and ENT.

The Ears Nose & Throat specialist are more knowledgable than regular docs...

PS: Any new cats or pets?

did you pierce it??? go to a docter

I just put on some betadine and it drys it up.... Maybe not the best solution but it drys it up and then it falls off leaving no scars or anything

Go to a doctor right away. Your sinuses are very close to your brain and an untreated infected sinus could result in meningitis.

go to the doctor, thats been there way too long. dont put anything on it, maybe some vasalene to keep it moisturized. and avoid touching it

Have you tried Yoga ?

well, my experience with yoga shows that w never get these common deseases. I am doing it for last 14 month ever since the day one I have not got cold cough leave that also I have not got any fever.

u may need antibiotics, but when it happened to me i just dabbed some alcahol based aftershave in there and it was all good.bushman remedy, but it worked. dont let infections hang around tho, because they can do you more harm than people think.

because you often drink a cold water.so you must check what is you nose problem?

Sounds like a sinus infection. It will not go away without antibiotics.
