What Causes Stinging Nose After Using Cocaine?

Posted on Tue, 2 Feb 2016

Question: What can a person do to clear and stop stinging nose from cocaine

Answered by Dr. Dr. Muhammad Sareer Khalil (45 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Stinging nose from cocaine

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome

I appreciate your concern

The nasal mucosa when dry can erode and lead to irritation and stingy sensation. There can be additional bleeding and infection. Local polyfax ointment and decongestant nasal spray should help in keeping the area moist/lubricated and prevent infection and further erosion. Avoiding cocain would also go a long way in prevention of such symptoms in the future.

Let me know if you have any query

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
