A member asked:
In one nostril everyday i get clogged hard chunks that when i pick out they bleed what could cause this? should i be seen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nasal Bleed: "chunks" you are referring to are likely a combination of dried nasal discharge ("snot") and dried blood from previous bleed, and possible healing skin that gets picked off when you go after the "chunks." simple answer: do not pick your nose and use warm saline rinse daily or several times daily to moisten the mucous membranes. If there is a polyp (growth) or other growth you should see an ent.
