You seem to be suffering from nasal vestibulitis which is a common type of infection of the skin lined area of nose. Usually it occurs because of repeated nose picking. You may need to take antibiotics and apply antibiotic ointment for few days
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
