I am 63 yrs old. I have a sore inside the tip of my left notril which has been there for a year. I had one surgically removed in 2005 and the lab report said Excision of lesion in upper left nasal passage with skin graft. Mild hyperkeratosis, epithelial hyperplasia Another was removed in 2008. Now I have a third one. What could this be?
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The soreness in the nostril usually is related to a foruncle. It is an infection of the hair follicle. I suggest using an antibiotic cream for local application such as Neosporin cream. I also suggest to use a painkiller such as Tylenol in case of pain.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
