Hello
please meet your doctor as the soft lump which you are feeling may be collected blood or worst still, it may be pus. This is a bit dangerous as the infections of the nose have a propensity to spread on the face and can even go into the brain. please dont take this lightly , you may need surgical drainage of the secretions and a course of antibiotics, please meet your doctor as soon as possible.
