Asked By:asmi1992 in Houston, TX

April of 2014 I got a really bad ingrown hair in my right nostril. After finally getting rid of the infection I've realized my cartilage has either caved in or flipped. It is distorting my nose and I'm pretty sure my cartilage is pinching a nerve. It's not very severe I'm just wondering my options. Thank you!
