Hi All Have Had A Hack/ Scab Up My Nose For About 3/4 Weeks

[alinic]

Don't feel it warrants a doc appointment tried sudcreme etc but won't heal up? Any advice?
Thanks ali

[albaqwerty]

if you feel it warrants a doc appointment, I'd see the nurse at the surgery.
That's a long time.
Please phone them

oh good grief, insert 'doesn't' where appropriate.
fingers and keyboard ain't working well together today :-D

What's a "hack scab?"

[albaqwerty]

A hack can be a sore crack at the end of the lips, a scab is obviously when something bled and is healing up!
(as if you didn't know!)
I presume it's difficult to tell what it is cos looking up one's pwn nose is a bit problematic lol xx

[Mamyalynne]

A 'hack' can men a cut or wound.

[ummmm]

They take ages to heal in my experience. What about some germelene (sp)

[Sqad]

I presume, what we as children used to call a "bogey"....perhaps.
If that is so and it is large and it smells, then it may need removing with forceps.
No big deal......see your GP.
Are you female and Irish?

[Barsel]

Naseptin Nasal Cream, but don't know if you can get it without prescription.

[ummmm]

It's not a bogey, Sqad. It's a scab. If you pull it out it makes your eyes water and then just scabs over again.

[Sqad]

It would seem that we are giving advice and we don't know what we are talking about.

[albaqwerty]

another normal day on AB sqadlet :-)

[Sqad]

ummmm....right.
I will leave this to the "experts."

[Dave14]

Try "Lypsyl". Also, apply to sore finger ends, and cracked skin between toes! Sounds odd but it works!

Savlon does it for me..and DON'T pick !

[douglas9401]

Just off the phone with former miners leader and lay-noseologist Arthur Scargill who said 'Take it from me, it'll never get better if you picket'.

[alinic]

Female and Scottish! No smell not a bogey! Just can't heal it.

[anneasquith]

Think we would all recognise a ' bogey ' :-)

[Smowball]

Scabs are almost impossible to not pick!

I'm trying to figure out what sex and nationality have to do with having a hack ;)
