What Causes Scabs Inside Nose While Suffering From Common Cold?

I had a really bad cold and nose nose would get crusty and scabs inside. I would clean both side with q-tip and keep it clean however the left side seems to have an indention under the bone as big as the tip of my pinky finger. I ve ready a lot of cocain uses get this or even an actuall hole in the nose. What can I do? It scabs over then when I need to blow my nose the scab loosens and then will come out. What needs to be done?
