Dry, crusty nose: what works?

I happened to stumble upon this old thread while digging through the archives, so I certainly hope it's acceptable to pose a question here.

For several months now, I have been struggling with these rather painful scabs and irritations inside my nose. I was a regular at the local YMCA pool through the end of June, and I am increasingly convinced that the constant exposure to chlorine is the culprit preventing these wounds from healing properly. Since I live right on the coast, I also spend a significant amount of time in the ocean, which hasn't helped matters one bit.
Could anyone suggest an effective remedy for this specific issue? Unfortunately, all the pharmaceutical options here in the States are prohibitively expensive, so perhaps someone could recommend a herbal or natural alternative?

I just used some Vaseline to fix that issue.

Pure petroleum jelly does the trick every single time, and you can usually pick up a tub for about $3.25 .

I am currently applying some Aquaphor; I happened to have a tube lying around the house, and it appears to be doing the trick.
