How To Treat Recurring Dead Skin On The Edge Of Nose?
I have a small patch of what seems to be dead skin on the edge of the inside of my nose. I keep removing it to relieve pain but it seems to come back a month or two later. The skin feels very dried out and hurts when I move my nose and very painful to remove.

Hi,
It seems that this might be due to crust formation inside nose due to cold and irritation.
Do not try to remove crust.
Apply antibiotic cream or vaseline in the part.
Within 2-3 days it will be alright.
Ok and take care.
