First of all, you have to leave it alone. Use hydrocortizone cream on it to help the itch. It may just be dry skin, or it could be something you got on your nose that caused irritation. If it continues, or if you have other symptoms that pop up, see your doctor about it.

Have you had a runny nose recently? Or has your nose been very dry? If so, you've probably been wiping or rubbing your nose without really being aware of it, and the skin is probably irritated.
Use a gentle moisturizer without any scent or color, and try not to touch your nose. It should start to feel better in a day or two.

If it's hard then it's poi sin; if it itch then maybe its a pimple you burst previously try using some rubbing alcohol to clean it and then try putting some Vaseline intensive care.
