What Causes Bloody Crust In Nose Everyday?

Hi. I am getting a bloody crust everyday in the same spot. If I don t get rid of it, it gets loose during the night and goes down my air pipe. But when I get rid of it my nose bleeds and the crust comes back after several hours. What can I do to stop it and is there a reason it is happening?

Hi,

There is a very easy solution for your problem, take Neosporin ointment which is an antibiotic ointment, and apply that over the crusted area at least 3- 4 times in a day, the more frequent the better. Must apply before going to sleep. And absolute no no to touch....Please.
It will be fine in 2- 3 days.
