sore nose :(

I occasionly take cocaine at the weekends. I have also recently started suffering from hayfever and now have little scabs inside my nose, which are very itchy and sore and sometimes bleed.

I am too embarrassed to go and see my doctor about this incase its related to me taking cocaine and I wouldbe ashamed having to admit to the doctor that I take drugs.

Does anyone think that this could be related to taking coke and does anyone know of any solutions I can try and clear it myself?

I was going to suggest the netti pot as well.  Also to add that the weekend thing burned me too - turned into every other day, binges, along with drinking, pills, smashing cars, losing thousands and thousands of dollars.  Please, stop now while it's just a weekend thing.

You can get what they call a "netti pot" at Walgreens....use a saline rinse several times a day .....and then apply a dab of triple abx ointment on your finger and swirl it around in your nose............or use a q-tip to apply........ And learn this lesson. There is all kinds of garbage in coke these days - - and the cartels dont care one bit about quality control or your life!!  Live and learn.... dont go back there.

hello and welcome to mh. snorting cocaine definitely causes the symptoms you are experiencing. simple test, stop snorting the cocaine and see if you nose heals.
i think you know that continuing on this road of experimenting with drugs will only lead to further destruction in your life.
