A week ago the inside of my nose on both sides seemed to get red/pink in the back. now i have a small scab on the bottom, what could of cause this?

Nose scab: Sometimes when the inside of our nose gets dry, you can get some breakdown and cracks in the fragile skin - that can cause irritation, mild bleeding and scabbing. Picking, scratching or rubbing the inside of the nose can do the same. If it's persisting and the scab's not healing, make sure you see your doc! hope this helps!
