I was blowing my nose and I noticed something blocking my nostrils. When I checked, it looked like a piece of flesh and Im thinking it might be nasal polyps. Its really close to my external nostril. Should I be worried? What should I do next?

My daughter keeps having streaks of blood in her mucus almost every morning. The ENT specialist mentioned that something might be stuck in her nose. Does that sound right? Could there be another reason for this bleeding? It happens so often, and I'm starting to get really concerned.
