his nostrils and heat pits look clear. the pits look pink inside and his nostrils just look dry and crusty around them, but there doesn't appear to be anything inside or coming out.

what makes you say looks like he's been rubbing? rubbing his face against something?

i tried to see if it rubbed off with my finger, but didn't try too hard. i'll try a wet paper towel tonight and see if it comes off.
