Worried about growth inside nostril - warning photo attached

I think that I have had for a while but never taken a look before. Small white growth looks a bit like a wart. I have really bad health anxiety so worried it’s something serious. I have attached a photo. Wondering if anyone has had anything similar and not been anything too serious.

Not seeing a pic, however am new here x

Looks like a spot but can't be sure from a pic. Anything sinister is normally abnormal in shape, colour, growing fast etc.

I had a walt just on the inside edge of my nostril. Had it removed by freezing - took about 2 minutes. Pop to the GP and get it checked.

Probably best idea, if had one before more than likely is same thing, try not to worry. X

Could be a simply blocked hair follicle, hence inflamed spot.
it’s painful as it a very sensitive area. As pp mentioned pop along to your GP.

Yep, definitely get it checked out. In most cases you need to battle to get an appt but be persistent. You could do online consultation, you do have the photo.

Hopefully you’ll get it again soon @Glissed but I think you’ve replied on the wrong thread, so might not get the replies you’re after.
