nose damage??

Hey guys I've posted here a few times about trying to kick H .. But to no avail i relapse everytime.

Recently I've noticed that my left nostril isn't taking to snorting anymore . When i snort something it pretty much instantly starts dripping down my throat within minutes. The other nostril doesn't have this issue. I can snort a line and let it mostly all dissolve on my mucous membrane before i get even a tiny drip

This is my question:
Does long term daily snorting of H tear away my nose?? I never thought about this before but now I'm starting to worry

I snorted mainly pain pills for about 5-6 years then switched to H. . Snorting the H now just about everyday for about 9 months. Up to a half G a day sometimes more depending on the strength.

Any input helps. Thanks

If you didn't have any problem with pills and the erosion started with the H, my guess would be that it's cut with something corrosive to the nasal mucosa. I have no experience with that particular drug, so someone more experienced might want to chime in. You'd probably get better responses in OD.

If you think the problem is serious, see an ENT (ear / nose / throat doctor).

I would consult an ENT but idk what their reaction would be if i told them that I've been snorting drugs :/

I would suggest stopping snorting. I snorted anything and everything constantly for 4-5 years. The same thing happened to me, one nostril has nothing left, it just goes into my throat or lungs.

But I continued anyways. Eventually it got to the point where my septum is now shaped a bit like a parabola (curved) and is worn away in many parts. No holes in it yet, and I don't snort things anymore. The only reason I stopped snorting drugs was because I knew I couldn't afford the plastic surgery I'd have to get if I continued. Guess I love money more than getting high?

But you don't want to be on the shit side of statistics and end up with a bigger problem. Don't pick at the scabs either. Let your septum heal, even if its just a tiny bit, it's there to support your nose from collapsing lol.

Perhaps you have a deviated septum or tore away some cartilage in the nose, smartest thing to do would be to go to an ENT specialist and have him check out your nose.
