Polyps? (non smoker, 18) produce mucus, i can't breathe through my nose properly, weak sense of smell, my nostrils bleed, feel raw & become scabby

Maybe: Your symptoms can definitely occur in someone with nasal polyps, but other conditions can cause these symptoms as well, such as septal deviation and chronic rhinitis. I would suggest seeing your pcp or an ENT to have a thorough exam.
