Have a scab in my nostril that tends to rip off when i blow my nose, rebuild, and repeat the cycle. what can i do to get this area to heal properly?

See a dermatologist: you might have a bacterial infection and need a topical antibiotic called Mupirocin.this only has to be used for a few days before it solved the problem
