How To Treat Lesions On Nose?

it all started with a lesion on my nose which looked like a regular pimple. It not a pimple it has one hard core white head and if you try to take it out it seems to be attached to something. If it come out there are thousand more that keep coming out until it heal which takes months. My whole nose is scared with these lesion. Now it has gone to my eyebrow area. The tip of my nose has this red area, if you rub it this cheesy looking stuff comes out. The tip of my nose seems raw today. Please help me.

Hi.
As per your case history you are having Rosacea.
My treatment advice is -
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with spf more than 30.
2. Apply a clindamycin gel like Glocin twice daily on affected skin.
3. Take a vitamin c supplement once daily for 3 months.
4. Other treatment options are oral doxycyline, minocycline and isotretinoin taken only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
