Red angry nostril.. teething symptom or??

My munchkin has a red nostril ..it just appeared this afternoon. doesn't seem to be bothering him but he has had a crusty/stuffy nose the last couple of days. He just broke #2 & 3 molars in the last week or so and #4 is so close to erupting but is being stubborn.
Not sure if it's the change in weather since it's getting hot here already. Pretty sure he hasn't banged his nose.. it looks angry but no obvious marks to indicate a finger up nose injury or bang on it. (always possible, he had a nose a bit like this before from face planting... but it was scraped up too) and it's only on one nostril. He's not had a runy nose or runny eyes and is otherwise perfectly fine, just a bit clingy and grumpy at times which is normal when he is teething.
He's eating and drinking fine, no new foods to be allergic to... and diaper duties are normal.
He was a bit congested in his nose the last couple of nights which seemed to make him restless.. but bless his heart he somewhow figure out how to snort air out of his nose and dislodged those suckers himself .. last night he used momma's bare shoulder during a cuddle to dislodge some nice sticky big boogers.. yay
you can tell you are a mommy when you are happy your kid got rid of his boogers ..even if its on you
I don't suffer from allergies, DH did a bit but has it under control without medications ... but Texas is known for giving you allergies even if you never had them before.
Anyone else had anything like this ?

Re: Red angry nostril.. teething symptom or??
No, not exactly. However, when I was working DC some of the kids had a similar issue when they had allergies or when they were teething (sorry not much help).
The only other time I've seen something like that is when my little sister stuck raisins up her nose...It doesn't sound like that the case for your little guy though so I think I've ruled out raisins.
I'm a big help I know...
It seems a lot better today, I am wondering if he just rubbed it too much too dislodge those crusty old boogers and made it red... I'll keep an eye on it.
