I did some bad cocaine about a week ago. The next day after i felt a bit of numbness in my left nostrial face area. The next day pain and swelling increased. I look in my nose and see this huge pimple. It has been swelling and swelling and last night i popped it. Huge mess and it really freaked me out. I woke and noticed a bruise under my left eye afraid that i may have reptured a bloodvessle. I got a good bit of the stuff out of my nose but im still swollen almost as if i done nothing. Do i need to give it another squeezing or go to the hospital already?
hi and thanks for the query, you have what is known as nasal vestibulitis - infection just inside the nostril. Do not worry. do not squeeze it. you need a course of antibiotics preferably of the penicillin group and also a local ointment. please see an ENT specialist for the same. regards, dr rajkishori.
