In the nose are constantly formed sores ... Than to treat?

The emergence of painful crusts, wounds or pustules in the nose is a problem that practically everyone faces. But what if the sores are constantly forming in the nose? Treatment in each case can be advised only by a specialist. After all, a lot of different reasons can provoke the appearance of this problem. In this article, we will try to understand them and how to treat the disease in the light of its etiology.

Why in the nose there are abrasions, wounds and abscesses

Physicians name a lot of reasons, because of which in the nose are constantly formed sores:

1. Inflammation of the mucosa. It often leads to an acute or chronic cold. In most cases, blame for the appearance of painful crusts are sinusitis or sinusitis. In addition, the pathological process can result in mucosal trauma (for example, because of the habit of picking in the nose or because of a bruise), resulting in the formation of abscesses, bruises or subcutaneous hemorrhages.
2. Furuncles. Such a problem is often caused by hypothermia, stress, infection that has got on the mucous from dirty hands, as well as the presence of chronic diseases that reduce immunity.
3. Sycosis of the nostrils. The cause of the appearance of sores in sycosis lies in the presence of a source of persistent purulent discharge (sinusitis, sinusitis, etc.). As a result, a purulent inflammatory process develops in the human hair follicles located at the entrance to the nasal canal. They cause staphylococcal infection.

Treatment of sores in the nose

Small inflammatory processes can be treated at home. Can be very effective, in cases when the nose is constantly formed sores, ointments (zinc, streptomycin, "Acyclovir", tetracycline, oxolinic). Good results are also obtained by the use of antiseptic solutions ("Chlorhexidine" or "Miramistin"), which do not allow the development of infections and speed up their healing.

When furuncles appear, an independent solution of the problem is also possible, but in most cases a long treatment is needed, aimed primarily at strengthening immunity. At the initial stage of furunculosis, the patient is prescribed antibacterial ointments (for example, "Triderm"), as well as antibiotics ("Ceflazin", "Vancomycin", etc.). Anti-inflammatory drugs are also used (for example, Diclofenac). And in order to avoid surgical intervention, which is possible in more severe stages of the disease, the patient is prescribed laser therapy.

Sycosis, as a rule, has a long course, often there are relapses, so the main focus in the process of its treatment is directed at eliminating the underlying cause of the disease. In addition, the patient is offered to make lotions from antiseptics and astringents. Several times a day, the affected areas are recommended to be treated with ointments (Gentamicin, Levomecol, Flucinar, etc.). To get rid of crusts in the nose, the patient is injected with gauze turundas moistened in a solution of trypsin.

What is the lake

If the nose is constantly formed sores, and the smell is bad, then the doctor may suspect the presence of a fairly rare disease - the ozens. It is also called a fetid cold.

So far, the causes of this ailment have not been fully studied, but most often it is observed when infection with the mucous bacterium Klebsiella ozaenae, with pathologies of the pterygoal or sympathetic node, as well as with endocrine disorders.

This disease has a chronic form, and its treatment is aimed at alleviating the symptoms. To do this, wash the nose with saline solution, apply streptomycin ointment to the wound, make intramuscular injections of preparations "Gentamicin", "Lincomycin", "Oxacillin", etc.

Eczema and erysipelatous nasal inflammation

In some cases, the reason for the constant formation of sores in the nose is eczema. This pathology most often develops in children and adults with purulent sinusitis, in response to the constant irritation of the dermis with secreted secret.

The first sign of the disease is reddening and swelling of the skin surface at the entrance to the nostrils, then there are small, fluid-filled vesicles. Lopa, they leave a wet surface, on which cracks and crusts are formed.

Patients in such cases complain of soreness and itching in the affected areas and, trying to remove dry crusts, further aggravate the process.

No less severe disease of the nose is also erysipelas. It develops because of minor abrasions that occur in the wings of the respiratory organs as a result of squeezing out small festering, picking at the nose, etc. If the infection gets into the wound at the time of injury, the process can cover the entire nasopharynx and even lead to a narrowing of the larynx.

Treatment

If the nose is constantly formed sores In the form of eczema, then they will have to be treated for a long time. And the main attention will have to be paid to eliminating the causes of the disease. For this, it is necessary to sanitize the sinuses of the nose and adenotomy.

To eliminate skin lesions, lotions from resorcinol or tannin solution are used. Quite effective in these cases is the yellow mercury ointment and the sintomycin emulsion.

Erysipelas is treated only in a hospital. Therapeutic measures include the massive use of antibiotics, the treatment of affected areas with antiseptics, ointments and emulsions (for example, a solution of silver nitrate, Burov's fluid, an extericide, streptocid ointment or emulsion, etc.). In addition, patients are irradiated by ultrasound and laser therapy is performed.

Problems caused by serious diseases

Separately, one should also mention severe pathologies, which can lead to the formation of sores in the nose. Photos of signs of these diseases and a description of their treatment we will not put here, since this is too big a topic. And pathologies themselves require long and qualified treatment. But they still need to be listed.

1. Syphilis. At the beginning of the development of the disease at the entrance to the nostrils may appear hard chancre, after which the mucosal edema develops, accompanied by purulent discharge. In childhood, congenital syphilis can be found, accompanied by chronic rhinitis, which is practically untreatable. At the last stage of syphilis, the patient in the nose appears persistent ulcers, destroys the nasal bone, as a result of which the back of the nose sinks.
2. Tuberculosis of the nose. It is manifested by ulcers and tumors, similar to those that occur in sarcoma.
3. Tumors. In the nasal cavity can develop both benign and malignant neoplasms, requiring urgent examination and emergency care.

Why do children constantly have sores in their noses?

The child often has nosebleeds associated with the development of bacterial infection. Golden and epidermal staphylococcus most often settle on the mucous membranes, resulting in there are small wounds, from which mucus is released. This provokes a herpetic eruption near the nostrils, reddening of the nasopharynx and its swelling.

If these signs are found, it is necessary to show the child to a specialist - ENT - for the purpose of therapeutic procedures. Otherwise, the patient is threatened with serious complications in the form of pneumonia, meningitis, etc.

Treatment of staphylococcal infection

If a small patient in the nose is constantly formed sores, than to treat them, should only be decided by a specialist. Most often, the ENT appoints antibiotics ("Azithromycin", etc.), as well as medications that help restore the microflora of the mucous surfaces of the nasopharynx ("Linex", etc.).

A very effective tool is the use of salt solutions, which the child is washed with the nose, as well as vasoconstrictor drugs.

A good effect is given by herbal inhalation. But the treatment of infectious lesions of the nasal mucosa requires compulsory observation of the doctor and individual selection of medications.

Prevention of diseases

Most often, sores, wounds and cracks in the nasal cavity are formed in people whose immunity is weakened. For the same reason, women complain that in the nose are constantly formed sores after childbirth. In order to avoid their development or relapse of the already observed problems with the mucosa, one should adhere to certain rules:

• At the end of winter and in spring it is necessary to take fortified vitamins;
• Do not overcool;
• Do not touch the person with unwashed hands;
• Do not use other people's cosmetics, handkerchiefs or towels;
• When dry crusts appear in the nose, they can not be damaged, so as not to provoke the spread of infection;
• During the treatment procedures, you should always take a new cotton swab to lubricate the wound;
• During the runny nose, it is best to use non-handkerchiefs, but disposable napkins.

And remember that any disease is easier to prevent than treat.
