itchy nose

Needs a scratch

An itchy nose is a tingling or irritating sensation in or on the nose that provokes a desire to scratch or rub.

Folk superstition holds that an itchy nose means someone is talking about you, or that you'll soon kiss a fool, receive a visitor, or get into a fight—the specific omen varies by region.

My nose has been itchy all day.
