Had Septoplasty 2 years ago to correct a deviated septum in an attempt to help my sleep apnea. I did not pick my nose at all after the surgery for about a month and was using a nasal rinse for about 2 months. The problem is that my nose still develops large internal scabs every day or so, to the point that my breathing is actually worse then before the surgery. I am constantly picking my nose (in private) to rid the scabs. What should I do?
