Due To Abnormal Painful Snouts Experiencing Difficulty In Breathing

My dad has abnormally huge painful boogers. He says they make it impossible to breath cause headaches that he can't get rid of and there is also blood almost every time he blows his nose and even more blood when he can finally get them out! They cause him a lot of pain! I was wondering what is causing this, if its something to be worried about, and if at all possible how to make it a little more bearable or make it go away completely?? I've googled this countless times and can't find anything!

Hi,Dear,Thanks for your query to HCM.
Dear I read your query and reviewed it with context to your query facts.
I understood your health concerns and feel Concerned about them.


Based on the facts of your query, you seem to suffer from-
Hard,Crusty Nasal dried out discharge.
Don't disturb them by removal.Warm water with bicarbonate douches would release them easily for you.If you physically remove them,they could create
heavy bleeding from nasal bleeders placed at that location.
Adequate hydration and timely maintenance would reduce their hard encrusted formations.
Hope this would resolve your health issues in the best way possible.
Welcome for any further query in this regard.
Good Day!!
