See a doctor: most likely you might have ingrown hair folliculitis inside your nose causing the pain, like small zip inside your nose, if you can see it apply Neosporin using a Q tip. if you could not see it , and there is a slim chance you might hit yourself while sleeping see your doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. whatever you do. Do not squeeze it please.
