I have had a scab in my left nostril for years.

I too have started with this experience about two weeks now. It is bizarre. Here I am searching for info and common sufferers. It’s an annoying thing to deal with and feels like something (scabs) are “growing” in my left nostril. Maybe I have a bleeding capillary? I do have Psoriosis, so initially thought it sprang up in my nose. As it pops up in random places due to stress. I just need to have it checked out. May try the rosewater/glycerin .

Welcome @cyc, I'm glad you found this community of common sufferers. It is comforting to know you are not alone and learn what others have shared helps them. I recently found that a morning and evening nasal rinse using the Hypertonic or Xylitol packets works well to keep my nose dry and open. I like the Xylitol a little better because it doesn't sting but do notice the stronger Hypertonic seems to make the nose drain better...just takes a little while before it all gets out of the nose when you are done with the nasal rinse.

Were you thinking of trying the rosewater/glycerin as a sinus rinse or nasal spray?
