Ma'am it's difficult to come to a diagnosis just by the history, but if the projection you are describing is not the normal bone inside the nose (often misunderstood by patients), it might be a nasal polyp, or some other mass that might need further evaluation. But an ENT examination is needed to come to a conclusion, and decide further steps for management.

Next Steps

Start using saline nose drops Take steam before sleeping at night Visit clinic for an ENT examination and endoscopy (if needed)
