I'm turning into a budgie!!

[Linzy]

It's not a bad thing or that big of an issue but still I'm gonna have a whinge

I have had this scaley, itchy, bumply patch around and in my right nostril since I was about 3 months pregnant. It's very painful and itchy, I can only scratch it with my knuckle instead of a satisfying finger nail. It's all flakey and has spread a little bit down my lip. To make things worse (yeah like this is SUCH a big issue pfft) my own SIL says 'can't see a thing' I KNOW she can cos you can see it in the mirror and in photos! She just likes to make me look stupid whenever I mention anything like that.

Is it a pregnancy related excema? I have never suffered from it. It's like I have been blowing my nose for the past 4 and a half months and it's left my nostril dry, cracked and itchy like when you have a cold...I haven't shown the ob or midwife cos it's such a petty little thing, and my low lying placenta is more important at the moment.

I've tried slowly rubbing my normal daily moisturiser into it everyday, nothing! I've tried vaseline..nothing! Just one of them things I guess...

Am I possibly turning into a budgie? First this, then the moles started heh heh heh 'I'm en aminal not a human bean'

Could possibly be a staph type of infection. I would get it checked out by your ob / clinic..

Hmmm staph infection? Gawd that sounds intense! I haven't been blowing my nose at all, well anymore than normal otherwise I would think it was from that..just been there for such a long time now, I did have a cold at 6 weeks pregnant but thats all and I don't think the patch was there then. Maybe I am finally turning into a lizard, I've always wanted to be a dinosaur! Ok I'll tell my Ob when I see him, see what he thinks thanks for the replies guys
