Nostril bigger than the other, cocaine abuse

Hi there.
I have been addicted to cocaine since one year.
I use about 3 grams per month average, i thought it was helping me with my very busy company but apparently it was not helping at all.
I am determined to quit this and i believe i will succeed as i have never considered quitting before. I don't touch that stuff since 2 weeks now and i don't really feel i need it anymore, something in my mind switched and i believe i woke up.
Reading your stories here really helped me to understand this is a very bad habit and needs to stop asap.

Unfortunately my nostril, when looked inside, is larger than the other, i don't have a hole in the septum and you don't notice the big nostril unless you look properly inside it but i am afraid this is gonna get worse even after quitting. So my question is, is it going to get worse now? Is it going to heal somehow with the time?

The skin outside my nose on top of the nostril seems thinner/softer than the skin in the other side. Again, this is not visible, you need to touch it properly to find out.

Do you have any advices please? I am quite scared, as i don't want nobody to know about this.
This is my battle and i believe i am strong enough to win it without worrying and involving somebody who loves me in my family, that could be a big trauma for my family.

Thank you very much for your support!

You can see a doctor and they won't reveal anything unless you give them permission. An ear, nose and throat doctor would be my suggestion.
