Q: i am using soap while i aam bathing and accidentally soap when into my nose what will just happen will it go or we must wash because my nose is having an terrrible flu and irritation?

: Soap in the nose will be irritating to the area, but is not dangerous. Try to rinse with water or saline nose spray. The irrigation and any congestion should go away within a day. If not, please contact your doctor.
