I CAN'T SAY IV'E HAD ONE IN MY NOSE BUT I HAVE ONE UNDER MY TOP LIP (MOUTH ULCE)THAT WON'T GO AWAY MY MOTHER USED TO GET THEM IN HER NOSE THOUGH AND SHE WOULD GET THEM ALL THE TIME

I get them inside my nose pretty much all the time. Once one goes away another shows up.

I wonder if these fall into the realm of mouth/nose sores that folic acid helps with?
When I take methetrexate, if I don't take folic acid even for one day, I get mouth sores.
You might try taking the folic acid and see if it helps.

I have them, too. When I blow my nose, there's usually blood that comes out. And, if I touch the bridge of my nose, it's sore and painful. Mine never go away.

my reumy is sending me to a ENT.because he thinks my sore should be looked at by a specialist.i have an appt.on wed. not looking forward to that.been their did that.ill let you know how it goes.marie

I have that sores in my tongue time to time. I know it hurts so bad....it will just go away in few ours sometimes day then come back again....

I get them often...just like Tina 07 explains them. Weird but my kids get them too. That's what makes me think it isn't Lupus for me but then they sound so typical for the disease.

Wow it is good to know that I am not the only one.......My Dr. just looks and says aaaaahh....thanks for bringing the up the subject kt

I have them horrible! Both sides of my nose are so painful. They scab up and make my nose feel "full" and it seems like I can't get as much air through my nose as before. The sores in my nose drive me crazy!!!

well the sores returned...

I have it when it goes away it goes to the other nostril. I told my doctor but he is the one that really don't listen. He gave me a cream and said its a staff infection.. But back then I didn't know that was a part of Lupus.. I get them every couple of months and it takes weeks for it to go away.

Oh and I get some on my tongue both the nose and tongue hurt like hell.

I like you gidget, get them usually in one nostril and they hurts like hell! Years ago, I got one and because I worked in jails, the Dr said it was airborn virus and told my ex at the time to be very gentle with me because it was as painful as shingles. I didn't get any again for about 6 years and then I was treated with about 5 rounds of antibiotics and could never get a reason. I then got the worst case of Eppstein Barr Virus and my body quit. I was bedridden for 3 months. This was in 2000 and my body hasn't been the same. I did get a couple more sores in the last couple of years and my ENT did a staff test and it was neg. I have a creme she gave me to put on at the first feeling of one coming on. Your not alone! Hang in there!

Try applying Neosporin to a cotton swab, and apply it to the nose ulcer and just keep it there for awhile. Change the swab and repeat the process.
As far as the mouth ulcers apply some Ambesol, or any oral analgesic to the area with a cotton swab.
That should help.

I didn't have Epstein Barr Virus like red angel , I had mono one time really bad for 8 months it attacked my spleen. I thought it was the end of my life it was soooo horrible. My kids didn't get to go to school like the should have cause I was so ill.. That's when I got my first nose sore. Now they come and come and come.. Never ending..
