What is this growth inside my nostril? (photo)

splentAug 28, 2014
I have a growth inside my nostril. It is red. It's been there for a couple of months. When I used to scratch it it would bleed for a long time and then stop. The growth has since gotten bigger. What is it and how can I get rid of it?
