Recurring Break Out Near Nostrils With Skin Secreting Clear Fluid, Flaking. Due To Sun Exposure?
hi there! every 3 or so weeks this thing will break out near one of my nostrils where my skin starts secreting a clear fluid and then it starts to flake over the next day with dead skin and it takes about a week to go away. then 3 or 4 weeks later it comes back. I'm thinking that it somewhat gets caused by sun exposure also. do you know what this might be?
