A vein inside my left nostril hurts and is swollen. Any natural remedies to lessen the swelling?
Answer:
try a dab of some antibiotic cream with an analgesic
You could try ice packs to bring down the swelling and there are over the counter allergy meds that you can take. You could even put some antibiotic ointment on it if it is opened but a nurse, I have to say-------if it continues, go to a doctor, that is what they are trained for.
You might have folliculitis (infected hair follicle inside the nose). Clean it well 2-3 x daily with warm peroxide (use a Q-tip saturated in it if it's just a small area), then apply some Bacitracin ointment to the area after each cleaning.
