Sodium bicarbonate is usually safe when used inside the nose. Concentrated solution can cause some irritation but won't harm nasal mucosa generally. In fact dilute sodium bicarbonate is used to clean crusting from the nose after nasal surgeries
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist of he develops pain or irritation in the nose
