A member asked:

Why i feel like the sides of my nose burn and itch?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low level infection?: It is possible that you might have a low-level infection inside your nose. Sometimes bacteria can cause irritation leading to those symptoms. You might try some Bacitracin ointment inside each nostril a few times today and see if that helps. If not you should see an ENT doctor.
