i have had sore nostrils for the past month. It started with the left, and
now both are sore. There's lots of blood, but it doesn't drip out. They
scab over with bloody scabs inside, and there is green hard mucous.

Sorry for the horrible detail, but i'm concerned and I'm hoping it's just
because of hypothyroid or hypoadrenal.

Has anyone experienced this? Thanks.

I've had that for years, but not associated it with the hypo. It's
annoying, but also somehow strangely gratifying to get them out (tmi,
tmi, I know).

Lol!! I know what you mean! If I stopped picking maybe it would heal! If
it didn't get it out it would probably look horrible though.

I asked a pharmacist and they told me to put vaseline inside the nostrils to
protect them, I might start trying it.

Why don't you try a sterile saline nasal spray. Vaseline may feel good
initially, but simply keeping the moisture spray handy and using it when you
are dry will make a world of difference.

I don't know where you live, but I think that it has to do with lack of
humidity/dry weather/heat use. I have found that using polysporin on a
q-tip solves the problem within a day or two. I have had this problem
for so long and it has gotten so bad at times, that I think it has
finally affected my sense of smell. I don't smell things as intensly
as I used to and I can't taste food as well as I used to. The
advantage of both of those is that I can' t smell bad smells that used
to bother me and for food, well, I just don't eat as much as I used to.
The downside is not enjoying the intense smells of flowers, fresh air,
clean hair and the awesome tastes of food. Oh well...all part of
getting older.
