I squirted soap up my nose and now its very hard and swollen and hurts in the right nostril . help?

Soap up your nose: First of all, why did you squirt soap up your nose? Secondly, it sounds like your nasal passage is inflammed. As long as you don't have a problem with moving air in and out, you're ok for now. If that happens, go to the ER ASAP. In the mean time, you can consider using an ice pack to decrease the inflammation. It should improve spontaneously. If not, go see your primary care provider.
