Is Wart On Nose After Scratching A Sore Area On Nose Normal?

One day I noticed a soreness, almost felt like a little scratch on my nose, on the edge of my septum not quite into my nostril. I assumed I just scratched myself and dismissed it. Well in the next day or two I noticed a wart growing in that same spot. I now have a decent sized Wart on my nose and have been using over the counter wart remover to no avail. Is this just a common wart, or something I should see a doctor about?

Hi
While it may just be a common wart it may be something else and either way instead of treating it yourself, have a doctor look at it. Cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen may be necessary to get rid of it
