Why would you snort vicodin? Is it so it hits you faster or something well i agree with the other guy you probably got a perforated septum if you been doing for a while.

Not a doctor here, but just a thought... Could the pain killer be relieving the pain from the nostril?  Why not swallow the pill instead.

I can tell you that you're probably burning a hole in your septum.  And, I have one from nasal steroid use.  It's not fun.

See a doctor.  There has to be some treatment such that you can break this pattern.
