Hi
Welcome to XXXXXXX

The sore hard lump seems to be a boil of the nose that is infection of the hair follicle of the nostril. You can use topical antibiotic on the lump or can extract it by an expert person. you can use diclofenic for pain relief.

If you still have some query, feel free to ask

Thanks
