About 10 days ago I had a real blocked nostril...after building up pressure I blew into a hanky. Burst hank and another all over my hand with about 15 hairs as well. I managed remove the blockage and hairs.

About 3 days later got a lump on side of nose...after some 'exploring' I'm thinking it feels like an ingrown hair. How do I fix this? It is inside my nostril but is annoying me.

Cheers.

tweezers and kleenex for the tears.

The lump is out of site...and if it is an ingrown, what do I grip? It isn't at the end of my nose but about a cm from the end...

Id treat it like a spot and use the tweezers open mouthed to push down on the sides of ingrowth until it spurts back out again.

Or wait till it grows all the way through your nostril and out into the fresh air 🙂

don't ruddy mess with it. You are asking for real trouble. Take it to the docs or leave it alone - bodies self repair

Has your face been annoying you lately? Do you perhaps feel like doing something to spite it?

I have a pin badge that would be dandy for that.

Bruneep you are truly a bastard....

Besides, not everyone has 20 years dedicated service to a truly honourable service which would equip them with such an implement....

Barbados indeed. 😐

Stuff the metal bit up your nose and pass an electric current through it. Should remove the hair quite quickly.

edit - there are a few shown in this image but I think it is unlikely you'll suffer the same issue again.

No idea what the solution is, but an ingrowing hair up a nostril sounds like a fantastic picking / proding/ squeezing challenge 🙂

Brunep surely your pin will be rusty given it is 20 years old? 😉
