So for the past week I’ve had pretty much a consistent nose bleeds, pain, I got chunks of black red and white dead skin.. is there an easy way to get the skin out. Ugh

Also it feels like I have a parasites or worm in there is that possible?

Man this sucks
 
Yep, I know a guy who has a giant hole connecting his left nostril to his right. It's pretty gross. He was a chronic cocaine user for many years.

If you have to keep using, take Snafu's advice and switch ROA.
 
bro deviated septum is when your nose is crooked.
I know, shadester. Cocaine can cause deviated septum through inflammation, scarring and structural degredation.

Artie Lange is a good example:

Holy shit that’s ugly as fuck. I don’t snort cocaine I smoke it but I have been snorting my dope / fentanyl whatever it is. It’s cut with something nasty cause it burns pretty good.

I have a high pain tolerance though and this has To be a 7/10.. I really try to stay away from the needle but I guess I can do some shots if I’m very very careful.

Thank you
 
And yeah I’ve been snorting shit for 12 years on and off from coke, meth, heroin, pills.

I wonder if it is infected…

There are really cheap cameras on Amazon that are typically marketed towards cleaning ear wax but have attachments to view inside the nasal cavities in high definition in a similar fashion to what would happen in a medical setting. I would highly recommend examining the damage to the septum, and if it isn't fully penetrated through, use saline nasal sprays, vaseline, and antibiotics (Neospirin triple OTC, generic is fine) to give it any possible chance to heal. This also means immediately discontinuing damage until your body is able to regenerate and heal. Depending upon the extent of the damage, it may never be able to heal itself fully, and you'll need an Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) doctor to repair it with minor surgery. Either way, I wouldn't ignore it any longer and jump on preventative measures immediately.
 
Does your nose look any different in shape? I know a lady who’s nose bridge has completely collapsed and it’s tilting to the side. It looks freaking brutal. I’d try cleaning your nose out with some saline solution or go to the drs.
 
Assuming there is no hole , will it heal itself?

One of my nostrils is enlarged and can see the bone septum, other one is fine.

Can only see this by peeling back the nose so not normal..but still.

I'm not touching the stuff this weekend
 
Depends on the level of damage, but in general, no. Cartilage does not grow back, scar tissue would also be permanent.

The only option is reconstructive surgery.

Obligatory "I'm not a doctor".
Just feels like tissue around it is gone but not the cartilage itsel. I will allow myself to heal for a while as still a bit blocked up.
 
The tissue around the nose bone is the cartilage. It's the semi-hard but flexible stuff that your ear is also made out of.

Please, do yourself a favor, if you can't quit doing coke, just use a different ROA. Makes some crack out of it and smoke it.

No way! That's the worst advice I've heard.

Never doing crack or injecting. Id rather quit.

😱
 
Look, I realize the irony in telling someone to smoke crack as a harm reduction technique.

But you're a little misinformed or naive if you think smoking crack is somehow significantly worse than snorting cocaine, especially to the point where your nose is eroding, inflamed, and potentially infected.

So yes, you should quit.
I'll quit thanks. Not doing crack
