The last pic looks like stuck shed. The 2nd and 3rd to last look like possible scale rot or a wound healing from nose rub. I'd try a triple or double antibiotic ointment with no pain killer (whatever's available there) and dab a very small amount on the nose. Hopefully it is just stuck shed and she'll rub it off if you keep the nose moist. You could also wet your pointer finger and thumb, hold her head, and again very gently see if you can remove the stuck skin.
Good luck :)
 
thats a mouse, its a 'after feeding pic' ;)
thanks for your reply - i have tried but theres no shed on the nose, it feels hard and 'crusty'
 
Daddio you're my hero :)
I cleaned the nose with warm water and 'rubber' a bit - so now an old skin is off
