Brief Answer:
One to two weeks

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Health care magic.

For stopping cocaine I feel visiting a rehabilitation center is recommended as no advice helps properly.

The time taken for swollen nostrils depends on the age, immune status, risk of further damage, inter current illness.

However for a 51 year otherwise healthy person I feel it will take between one to two weeks time to heal properly.

I hope this answers you.
Feel free to contact me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
