What can I do to improve my situation? I know I shouldn't remove my boogers but it's driving me crazy

22-year-old womana year ago
In January I was sick and I was blowing my nose a lot. I started to bleed from my nose while I was blowing my nose, but I often bleed from my nose so I didn't worry. Now I see that the inside of my nose is very irritated. When I blow my nose it hurts inside my nostrils. My boogers are also very hard and they stick and make like a wall in my nose. If I try to remove them it hurts but it's disturbing to have a lot of things like hard in my nose.

Hello, ma'am,
Using a saline-based spray or atomizer can help relieve irritation and crusting. If needed, a gel such as Rhinaris Gel or Secaris can be applied to the nostril.
I would suggest nasal douches with Sinus Rinse or Hydrasense before blowing your nose to help loosen secretions. Also, it will be better to blow your nose with less intensity to prevent bleeding.
Sincerely,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
