GROWTH IN THE BOTTOM OF MY NOSE

I NOTICED A WHITE HARD PIECE OF SKIN GROWING IN THE BOTTOM OF THE INSIDE OF MY NOSE ON THE MEMBRANE SIDE.  i PICKED IT OFF AND IT BLEED FOR A GOOD HALF HOUR.  WITHIN A FEW DAYS IT WAS BACK.  I ASKED MY DOCTOR TO LOOK AT IT AND HE THOUHT IT WAS AN  INGROWN HAIR.  BUT IT WASN'T.  WHAT DO YOU THINK IT COULD BE?  HOW CAN I GET RID OF IT?    THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE,FRAN

Fran:

The firsr thing I would do is keep it moist with vaseline several times daily and don't pick at it.  I bet it falls off in under two weeks.  If not, show your doctor again.

Best.
