What Causes Swelling In Left Nostril After Consuming Cocaine?
Hi how you doing Doc. I did more then a couple of bags the other day. But nothing crazy happened to my face. I do feel my left nostril a bit swollen, and I m the only one who see s a little dent. Very small. But I m still a bit nervous and made up my mind not to ever touch coke again. I have 4 days clean. But what can I do to remove the little things?

Hello,
Cocaine snorting can cause injury to the nasal septum and even septal perforation. Consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated. If there is an abscess or swelling it has to be removed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
