Who Is It For
Treatment may be suitable if you have a confirmed or suspected bacterial infection inside the nose, or if you've been advised to clear bacterial carriage from your nasal passages. It's important that a clinician assesses your symptoms, as not all nasal problems are caused by infection and some may need a different approach. If your symptoms are severe, spreading, or you feel generally unwell, you may be advised to seek in-person care.
FAQ
What causes infections inside the nose? They can be linked to bacteria carried in the nostrils, minor injury such as picking or excessive nose-blowing, or following another infection. A clinician can help identify the likely cause.
How is a nasal infection treated? Treatment often involves an antibacterial cream or ointment applied inside the nostrils. Our clinician will confirm what's suitable for you.
When should I seek further help? Seek advice if the infection spreads, the surrounding skin becomes red and swollen, or you develop a fever, as this may need additional treatment.
